Wet foot/dry foot gone.

They can still claim asylum in the US.

Will they go into the international f/a pool? Are they off limits? Some other process?

No there's already a big moat around Cuba. No need for a wall

No need for that with embargo getting lifted.

An embargo has nothing to do with asylum

I don't see how it would necessarily change. I thought almost every Cuban defector went to some Caribbean nation first and worked through paperwork for coming to the US from there.

First rule is Dodgers get first right of refusal. Then if they don't want him everyone else can bid.
