Youre looking at an aerial view of Little Havana around midnight. The former cuban leader died early yesterday. He was 90 years old. Reaction in the u. S. To castros passing appears to be bittersweet. Thousands of people are cheering but many wish their loved once who escaped castros half century regime had lived to see his death. One cubanamerican said shes hoping for change once castros brother raul, the current cuban president who is now 85, is no longer in power. Hopefully we will have a future democracy in cuba and ill be able to go back and visit the land of my birth. President obama, who moved to normalize relations with cuba, says history will report and judge the enormous impact of fidel castro. President elect donald trump says Fidel Castros legacy is one of firing squads, poverty, and the denial of fundamental human rights. It was back in 1961 when president eisenhower closed the u. S. Embassy in havana because of castros close ties to the soviet union. Months later, president kennedy approved what would turn out to be a failed u. S. Backed invasion of cuba which brought the world to the brink of nuclear war. Fast forward to last year when president obama reopened the u. S. Embassy in havana. Commercial flights from the u. S. To cuba resumed this summer for the first time in half a century. Cubas Tourism Business is taking off even though tourism there is still technically off limits to americans. The cuban government declared nine days of mourning which canceled events and closed businesses. Cuban americans in our area are also hoping Fidel Castros death brings about some real change. Hamilton township councilwoman elena shurmer was born in cuba. She says explaining castros death to her own children has been a surreal experience. I said im happy. Im happy. And i dont want to feel happy about somebody being dead. But i actually feel happy that hes gone. My parents couldnt freely go back and forth to cuba if my grandmother was dying, my father couldnt go see her. You know, they separated a family. Another cubanamerican lawmaker from new jersey, u. S. Senator bob menendez says Fidel Castros death opens the way for possible democracy in cuba. Menendez opposed president obamas move to restore diplomatic relations to cuba over the past few years. Democratic senator laid out conditions for that kind of arrangement. Release all political prisoners. Hold free elections. Let the commission for human rights enter the country. And then, and then you can have a relationship with the United States. Menendez also wants cuba to return fugitive joann chessemar convicted in the shooting death of a new jersey state trooper in the 1970s.
