Raul Castro wished good luck to the "good man" Obama, but Fidel Castro had questions

Kubinsky leader Raul Castro wished Barack Obama Barack Obama as president of the United States, ITAR-TASS reports. “It seems that this is a good person, I wish him good luck,” he said, answering the press questions during a visit to the Latin American Medicine School in a suburb of Cuba.

Earlier, the head of the Cuban state has repeatedly expressed readiness for dialogue with the new US president to resolve bilateral contradictions. However, possible negotiations with the northern neighbor "must take place on the basis of equality and subject to the respect of the sovereignty and rights to self -determination of the" Caribbean country, Castro invariably emphasized.

The former leader of Cuba, Fidel Castro, for his part, considers Obama a sincere man. This was announced the day before after a meeting with the former leader of Cuba, Argentina President Christina Fernandez de Kirschner.

“We talked with Fidel Castro on various topics, mainly about the situation in the world, the blockade of Cuba, the inauguration of Barack Obama ... He (Fidel) said that he considers the new US president a sincere and with good intentions,” RIA Novosti quotes it.

Fidel Castro believes in the sincerity of the inaugural speech of US President Barack Obama, but many questions "remained open." The leader of the Cuban Revolution himself announced this on Wednesday in a new article, which was published following his meeting with the president of Argentina.

“During the conversation, I noted that I have no doubt in the sincerity with which Obama expressed his ideas, but there were many questions unanswered,” said Castro in his article, which became the first in the last five weeks. As an example, he indicated that the new owner of the White House did not explain, "how an extremely wasteful and consumer system (in the USA) will be able to provide environmental protection."

Recall that the President of Argentina was the first leader of a foreign state this year to visit Cuba, with whom Fidel met. Thus, the former Cuban leader indirectly refuted the recently in some media versions that his state of health was supposedly sharply worsened.
