Mexico_ The strengthening of the economic, commercial and financial blockade of Cuba by the government of President Donald Trump affects Mexican exporters in the Yucatan Peninsula, Prensa Latina reports.

In an extensive report El Economista newspaper says that at least 25 companies supported by the Mexican Business Council of Foreign Trade (COMCE), of the Quintana Roo delegation, saw their expectations of exporting and settling in the Caribbean island truncated.

According to the COMCE leader in Quintana Roo, Luis Macouzet Ramírez, after the arrival of the US dignatary to the presidency of the United States (USA) the process of commercial opening of the Island was canceled and with it the plans of expansion of companies of the Yucatan peninsula, who had already managed to obtain a legal status to operate in Cuba.

Before the presidential succession in the US, he explained, a great possibility was opening up for Yucatecan companies to be able to place up to 250 million dollars a year in exports to the largest Antillean island through the outsourcing of products and services for the tourism sector from the economic opening of the island.

These advances stimulated other national companies in the interior of Mexico to establish export lines to the nation and even install franchises there.

The companies that today want to maintain commercial relations with Cuba would face sanctions from the United States and would be prevented from exporting merchandise to that country, which affected Yucatecan merchants interested in developing their commercial relations with the Island, and forces them to start from scratch in the search for new markets.
