Havana regime in suspense after Castro indictment with Trump pressure on, says Cuban-born GOP Rep.
Cuban-born GOP Rep. Carlos Gimenez claims Raul Castro's federal indictment has caused regime paranoia, citing parallels to other despots' downfalls. The indictment relates to the 1996 downing of two U.S. humanitarian aircraft, with Gimenez asserting Castro intentionally targeted rescue efforts for Cuban refugees. He anticipates sustained U.S. pressure on the Cuban regime amid arrests of allies and geopolitical considerations involving Guantanamo Bay.
