Reports of Secret Talks Between U.S. Secretary of State and Raul Castro’s Grandson
Axios reported that U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is engaged in undisclosed discussions with Raul Guillermo Rodriguez Castro, the grandson of former Cuban leader Raul Castro, according to informed sources.
A senior official in the Trump administration indicated that these communications do not rise to the level of “negotiations,” but rather fall under “discussions” regarding the future of relations and potential developments.
Reuters was unable to independently verify the accuracy of this information, and the U.S. State Department has not released any official comment regarding the report.
This news comes at a sensitive time in U.S.-Cuba relations, which have been marked by years of political tensions and economic sanctions, amid anticipation for any signs that might reflect potential shifts in communication between the two sides.
