From a Reuters report: The United States and Cuba will meet in Washington on June 18 for a new round of talks on migration, a U.S. spokeswoman in Havana said on Saturday.
This will be the third time they have met to talk over migration since President Barack Obama became president last year.
The discussions primarily cover agreements from the mid-1990s aimed at preventing an exodus of Cuban refugees to the United States, such as the 1980 Mariel boatlift and the 1994 wave of boat people.
Previous migration talks under Obama were held in New York last July and in Havana in February.
