Castro(s) has had Billions put away and has had all of the opportunities it needed to help its people.

Instead, they have chosen to stash away BILLIONS and to DONATE MILLIONS and Millions to countries who believe in their cause while Cuba's citizens were starving.

if it also benefits Cuba, then OK.
BUT their welfare comes first.

As one can see in his daughter's attitude, there is a strong and underlying feeling of "THE US IS NOT GOING TO DICTATE TO US ANYTHING"

Castro;s daughter will not likely take over.

There is no way to explain this here.

I do not know if a lot exists in English, but in Spanish there are great interviews on YouTube by very prominent former government officials.

Thanks!
