1. It should be noted that Cuba has always recognized its obligation under international law to compensate U.S. property owners. The compensation scheme it put forward in 1960 was considered wholly inadequate by the U.S. government and by the owners. Consistently since 1977, however, it has reiterated its willingness to negotiate the matter with the United States.
