Last month Raul Castro, the brother of famous revolutionary Cuban leader and former Prime minister Fidel Castro announced his resignation from the office of the head of communist party.

It’s a very good interview and the article as well which lights on the relationship between Cuba and USA. It’s a very good approach to interview with the Cuban affairs member.
