New US envoy for Cuba

Via The Miami Herald:

The top U.S. diplomat in Cuba, Michael Parmly, will be leaving his post and will be replaced by a top official at the State Department’s Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor, the Department confirmed Thursday.

Jonathan D. Farrar, now acting assistant secretary at the bureau, has broad experience in Latin America, with previous postings at the U.S. embassies in Mexico, Belize, Paraguay and Uruguay.

State Department spokeswoman Heidi Bronke confirmed Farrar will succeed Parmly this summer. There was no immediate word on Parmly’s next assignment after completing a normal three-year posting in Havana.
