Cons joining fleeing Cubans, officials say

BY GEORGE GEDDA ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration has picked up "credi- ble reports" that Cuban authorities have released some prisoners in recent days, allowing them to join the boat people fleeing the island, officials said Tuesday.

NATION The officials said the issue will be taken up Thursday when delegations from the United States and Cuba meet in New York to discuss ways of deal- ing with the outflow of Cubans. One official said there are about "100 suspect cases" among the more than 15.000 Cubans who are being detained at the U.S. Navy base at Guantanamo, Cuba. But, the official said, all appear to be minimum-secu- rity cases involving prisoners serving time for trying to flee the island or stealing food. The officials, asking not to be iden- tified, said it is not clear whether the administration will try to have these Cubans repatriated. The spokesman at the Cuban diplomatic mission here was not available for comment on the U.S. allegations. Cuban prisoners are routinely tat- tooed between the thumb and forefin- ger, making them easily identifiable by U.S. officials. Cuban authorities angered U.S. officials 14 years ago when they allowed thousands of prisoners and mental patients to join the Mariel boatlift. Many of the prisoners had been guilty of violent crimes. Such persons cannot legally be admitted to the United States, and Cuba has allowed more than 1,100 of these Cubans to be repatriated. But the Clinton administration is seeking the return of an additional 4,000, and will raise the issue in this week's talks. Former Foreign Minister Ricardo Alarcon will represent Cuba at the talks, the first phase of which will be held at the U.S. mission to the United Nations. Alarcon was President Fidel Cas- tro's most trusted foreign policy adviser until he left diplomatic life last year to become president of the National Assembly or parliament. A State Department official expressed hope that the appointment of a close confidante of Castro indi- cates a seriousness of purpose by Cuba heading into the talks. Alarcon is well known in international circles for his scathing criticism of U.S. policies. Career diplomat Michael Skol, who will head the American delegation, said in a telephone interview the U.S. goal in the talks is to "end the rafter HULEN MALL outflow and to increase the possibility 4800 South Hulen Street, Fort Worth, TX 76123 (817) 292-2029 for legal, safe migration."
