“We want to help Cubans and have their rights guaranteed,” he added.
To the question of whether it was García himself, playwright and leader of the outlawed opposition platform Archipelago, who requested his transfer to Spain, the minister did not want to go into details, according to the Russian news portal Sputnik.
Yunior García and his wife Dayana Prieto arrived in Madrid on Wednesday on a commercial flight and with a tourist visa.
Archipelago was one of the promoters of the Civic March last Monday, which was finally not held after being disallowed by the Cuban authorities.
The news of the departure of García, 39, surprised the opposition platform, which on its Facebook page considered the activist disappeared after one of its members came to his house and no one answered the door.
Spanish diplomatic sources indicated that discreet arrangements had been made for García’s trip for several days., which flew to Madrid on Tuesday on an Iberia flight.
“From the Government of Spain we are concerned about the situation in Cuba, and what we want is to help Cubans, their well-being, and to guarantee their rights,” said Bolaños.
Cuba denied any type of agreement between Havana and Madrid to facilitate the departure of the dissident from the island.
A government representative assured that the Cuban authorities “have nothing to do” with the trip and considered that the activist would have processed the tourist visa on his own.
