“accusing Cuba’s communist government of refusing previous US offers of help, including support for satellite internet access”
CORROBORATED
One web search result explicitly states the US 'criticizing Havana's communist government for allegedly refusing previous aid proposals,' and another mentions the offer is conditional on reforms. While the specific mention of 'satellite internet' is not explicitly in the snippets, the general accusation of refusing previous aid is corroborated by multiple search results linked to the $100m offer.
