A bipartisan group of 34 Members of Congress have sent a letter to the Spanish oil company, Repsol, expressing concerns over its reported plans to partner with the Castro dictatorship to conduct exploratory off-shore oil drilling.

They urge Repsol to reassess the risks inherent in partnering with the Castro dictatorship, including the risk to its commercial interests with the United States.
