Raul Castro Makes First Public Appearance Since US Murder IndictmentPrevious
Next

Cuba's former leader Raul Castro made his first public appearance since being indicted last month in the United States on murder charges. The US government alleges that Castro ordered Cuban military jets to shoot down planes operated by Cuban exiles in 1996. His appearance at an Interior Ministry event in Havana was broadcast on state television amid heightened tensions between Washington and Cuba's government.
