Now, to add insult to injury, Castro has started issuing his own set of demands.
In a speech at the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States summit in Costa Rica on Wednesday, he said there'd be no normalization of relations unless the U.S. ends the trade embargo, closes the naval base at Guantanamo Bay and takes Cuba off the list of state sponsors of terror.
Oh, and he also wants the U.S. to stop allowing Cubans to stay in this country just because they manage to set foot on American soil. That's been causing a brain drain from the island, you see.
Castro has even told Obama what to do, saying in his speech the president should "use with resolve his broad executive powers to substantially change the scope of the blockade, even without the Congress' decision."
Come to think of it, saying Obama is the worst negotiator since Jimmy Carter is actually an insult to Carter.

Castro also wants Obama to wire 100 million to a numbered account to the Isle of Man. Should be no problem on this.
And obama will no doubt be willing to ccave in to all those demandsm
Only now it will be President calling the GITMO Commander.
And it’s a surprise that a small island dictator thug looks like a statesman compared to ombuumer.
I get that Soetoro is a liberal and hates this country's constitutional freedoms. But he really hates it. He is seeking to hurt and punish. What did America ever do to him to deserve his willful destruction?
In fact empowering murdering tyrants makes him feel good.
Clown Prince nobama remains a Traitor in plain sight.
How is it a set of demands when giving Gitmo back was the plan all along?
They roll over for that poser w/o fail.
Yep, he is not even being subtle. He is openly giving the finger to America..
we all know 0bama’s first reaction is:
‘ok. sure. sounds fine to me.’
he’s only delaying because he needs to set up the spin before heand
The Chinese maintain an advanced electronic base in the center of the Havana province to intercept all electronic communications in U.S. and is equipped for eventual cyber attacks to U.S.
Putin is reopening the spy base in the outskirts of Havana that was closed after the dismembering of the Soviet Union.
Six months before the 9/11 Islamic terrorist attack to New York and Washington, Fidel Castro, speaking at Tehran University in Iran on May 10, 2001, vowed that the imperialist king will finally fall, that their cooperation would put the U.S. down its knees. The hatred of the Castro brothers against U.S. has not mellowed after 56 years in power.
After Obama surrender to the communist regime the American base in Cuba, Castro might give the Guantanamo base to Iran to consolidate and strengthen the Cuban ties to the Islamic terrorist network, an alliance that started since the very beginning of taken power in Cuba the communist revolution.
Will Obama choke on that Cuban Cigar ?
Notice how gray Obama’s hair is lately?
Like Old St Nick..
Must be the Crown of Thorns he sits on.
The grey hair comes from the stress of playing golf, 17 day taxpayer funded Hawaii vacations, and intimate Camp David weekends with Reggie..
Well why not - it worked for Iran. We just sent them several billions that had been frozen.
If Russia invades Ukraine—we should invade Cuba!
