Castro signals peace on terms with Kennedy administration
Fidel Castro offered to begin talks for peace with President Kennedy but tied any reconciliation to a total change in U.S. policy toward Cuba. He condemned U.S. policy as mistaken and absurd, while Raul Castro warned imperialist danger would be met with force. The speeches came as Cuba demobilized militiamen after a three week alert, with hundreds still on duty and no clear shift in Cuba’s stance toward Washington.
