"The 45-day Congressional pre-notification period has expired, and the Secretary of State [John Kerry] has made the final decision to rescind Cuba’s designation as a State Sponsor of Terrorism, effective today, May 29, 2015," the release stated.

The Obama Administration announced its intention to normalize US-Cuba relations in December 2014. The US President said he wanted to re-open the US Embassy in Havana and to lift the trade and travel embargo on Cuba.
