U.S. Rep. Castor Statement on Indictment of Former Cuban President Raúl Castro

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Kathy Castor (FL-14) released the following statement on the indictment of former Cuban President Raúl Castro: “The indictment of former Cuban President Raúl Castro marks a critical moment for the Cuban people. The corrupt communist regime has inflicted economic pain and violated human rights for decades. The Cuban people deserve freedom,” said Rep. Castor. “As Cuban freedom fighter José Martí said, ‘Like bones to the human body, the axle to the wheel, the wing to the bird, and air to the wing, so is Liberty the essence of life. Whatever is done without it is imperfect.’”
