Brussels (AFP) - The European Union is preparing to normalise ties with Cuba following a decade-long dispute over human rights, EU diplomats said Thursday.

Experts from the EU's 28 member states this week "agreed on the principle of reviewing relations with Cuba," an EU diplomat told AFP on condition of anonymity.

Another EU source said experts were working on documents needed to begin formal negotiations on a "Political Dialogue and Cooperation Agreement".
