SPEAKING 13 WRITING 14 For many decades, Cuban citizens were not allowed to travel abroad without special permission, which was only rarely granted. Still, many of them tried to leave illegally. More than a million Cubans emigrated to the US alone, either by boat or ship at night or using stolen or fake passports to take a plane out of Cuba. Since 2013, Cubans have been allowed to leave the island nation, but finding a country that will allow them to immigrate legally can still be problematic.
