- CIA director’s meets with Cuban officials in Havana
The CIA director met with Cuban officials in Havana and offered US economic backing conditional on Cuba making fundamental political changes to its communist regime. The visit is unusual given Cuba's rejection of previous US aid offers and the ongoing US embargo that has worsened Cuba's energy crisis. The US is preparing an indictment of former Cuban President Raúl Castro.
