Barack Obama meets with Raúl Castro on historic trip
  • 8 years ago
President Obama and Cuban President Raúl Castro met Monday as part of Obama's historic visit to the Cuban capital marking the revitalized relations between the two countries.
It was their third face-to-face encounter since the two countries began to normalize relations 15 months ago, but it was the first on Castro's home turf and the first visit of a U.S. president to the island in 88 years.
Obama and Castro are scheduled to have two back-to-back meetings, the most extensive high-level talks between the United States and Cuba in decades.
