The U.S. is reportedly considering a criminal indictment against former Cuban president Raul Castro, linked to the 1996 incident where planes from the humanitarian group Brothers to the Rescue were shot down. This investigation is taking place in the Southern District of Florida. The potential indictment aligns with President Donald Trump’s recent statements about focusing on Cuba following operations in Iran, suggesting a shift in U.S. foreign policy. This development could have significant implications for U.S.-Cuba relations and is part of a broader strategy by the Trump administration.
