Trump administration prepares to seek Raúl Castro indictment as it pressures Cuba The Justice Department is preparing to seek an indictment against former Cuban President Raúl Castro, sparking debate about its implications for US Cuba relations and the region at large.
The move appears to be driven by the Trump administration's increasingly vocal criticism of Cuba's communist government.
President Donald Trump's administration has been applying economic pressure on Cuba since January, after raising the threat of military action against the island nation following the US capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro.
