Two more defectors from Cuban workersâ paradise
|
Two dancers for Cubaâs renowned National Ballet have defected during the dance companyâs tour of the United States. Gema Diaz and Cervilio Amador slipped away from the Cuban ballet company company last Saturday in Daytona Beach, Florida, where the dancers were scheduled to perform. Mr. Amador says the two met with an immigration attorney this week and plan to ask for political asylum. The Miami Herald newspaper quotes Mr. Amador as saying the two want to live in freedom. The Cuban National Ballet has not commented on the defections. The dance company is on a 20-city tour of the United States, and is currently in New York.
At press time, there was no official comment from Cuba regarding the US offer to expatriate Alec Baldwin and Sean Penn in trade.
