OAS lifts ban on Cuba after 47 years

The Organization of American States (OAS) on June 3 lifted a decades-old ban on Cuba's participation in the group and cleared the way for the island's return despite initial U.S. objections. The vote by acclamation to revoke a 1962 measure suspending Cuba from the group toppled an enduring landmark of the Cold War, and was just the latest in a series of events to draw Cuba back into hemispheric activities.
