HAVANA - April 7, 2009 - A spokesman at the U.S. Interests Section in Havana confirmed
that Rep. Barbara Lee, a California Democrat, and two other
lawmakers met with the ailing, 82-year-old Castro. He did not have
further details nor could he provide the names of the other
American leaders who attended the meeting.
Lee led a delegation of six Democratic representatives who left
Havana Tuesday after a five-day trip designed to encourage dialogue
between the United States and Cuba, amid much speculation
long-chilly relations may improve.
