Cuba on the Brink? Ana Breaks Down the Raul Castro Indictment

About this episode

Ana breaks down Raul Castro's indictment and its implications amid rising tensions between Cuba and the US.

Ana breaks down Raul Castro's indictment, which stems from a 1996 incident in which Cuba shot down two planes over international airspace. While the indictment has brought joy to the Miami Cuban community, Ana examines the timing — coming amid all-time high tensions between Cuba and the US — and whether the situation in Cuba could escalate into something similar to what we saw with Maduro in Venezuela.
