(22 Mar 2016) One of Cuba's most prominent dissidents said that U.S. President Barack Obama's visit to her country was "historic for the Cuban government, but not for the Cuban people."
Berta Soler, the leader of the Ladies in White opposition group, was among the dissidents who met with Obama in Havana on Tuesday.
She stressed that "the repression continues" in Cuba, despite Obama's visit to the island country.
The dissidents who met with Obama included journalist Miriam Celaya, attorney Laritza Diversent and activists Manuel Cuesta, Jose Daniel Ferrer, Antonio Rodiles as well as Soler.
Obama praised the group of Cuban dissidents for showing "extraordinary courage," after meeting them at the U.S. Embassy in Havana.
