Revolutionary palace behind joe jose martys memorial. This is the u. S. President walking into they rurungs ri palace in community u. S. Cuba, something many thought they uld never thrive see. Then the photo that is broadcast an ash the worm, president obamaand mr. Castro shaking hands on cuban soil, their countries and their governments longstanding years of animosity and acrimony dating back five decade but they shook hands today and sat next to each other. That is a picture we havent seen hins april of last year when both men met in panama at the summit of the americas. Now, president obama also could be overheard saying that he had a good dinner last night and that he had a good time in old havana. Now, both mr. Castro and obama talked for quite a bit today, in fact, for most of the midafternoon will bilateral issues with longstanding issues between both countries from telecommunications, to trade and direct mail that happened just last week. Then it was on to theiroint News Conference where mr. Castro was asked about Political Prisoners and he had a very testy response. I have said consistently after more than five very difficult decades, the relationship between our governments will not be transformed overnight. We continue as president castro indicated, to have some very serious differences, including on democracy and human rights. [ speaking in spanish ] give me a list of the Political Prisoners, and i will release them immediately. Just mention a list. What Political Prisoners . Give me a name or names. Or whehe after this meeting is over you can give me a list of Political Prisoners, and if we have those Political Prisoners, they will be released before tonight ends. Calvin and the president , we has not yet made it to the brewery. But there was a lot of response not on here from journalists but also around havana as castro had to answer those very tgh questions. Were going to have that reaction in just a moment. But lets take you back to this morning what i lot of tourists happened to be out there at the plaza dederevolution. They had a lot of reaction. L thats right, calvin. This morning really was about the president paying homage to jose marti with cubas national hero, but the folks we met whether american or cuban, were paying homage to the president s firsttime visit. In the shadow of jose martu, cubas national hero, a found be father of this caribbean nation, president obama lays a wreath, and watching it all, some americans and coincidental fre miami. I think its an Incredible Opportunity in regards to peopletopeople diplomacy. Hatzel nathaniel styles has he is proud the president of the voyage. Everybody thats here every time we have come here, they be excited about obama. No animosity, no resentment. They welcome the c`ange. Hatzel styles moved up his visit a week so we can be here the president. I think its significant tt obama would be the person considering he is a man of color and the population of cuba is greatly about 70 people of color. Everybody needs to talk. Hatzel harn, his friend also from miami, knows hes a witness to history. Changes, the opportunities that theres a benefit here. Its not about the its about the people. Ask its a great day in terms of opportunity for the cuban people. Hatzel those are two americans, specifically from and shared those with us this morning, but we also spoke to a cuban man who was wearing an american flag, and he said this was his third attempt at trying to see the preresident. No chance. The one thing that i took away from speaking with him was the fact that he felt like the cuban people had not been given the chance yet to really interact with the president , to even see the president because, as you and i seen, lots of road closures, lots of security measures to keep people away from the area where the president is traveling. Calvin you know, i think, despite in spite of what has happened all day long and all the events that of happened, i think the News Conference seems to be what everyone is focusedon. What was your reaction when you saw mr. Castro take a questn about Political Prisoners . You group in south florida. You know the history, and you know the context, and for raul castro to stand there and sort of waiver waver, maybe hesitate, his voice when asked about that issue, the Political Prisoners issue, it was amazing to see, being and the fact that were here in havana and that the question is being asked by an american journalist, what a day. Calvin he almost felt like he didnt have to answer the question. It was almost like how dare you ask me this. Hatzel lets be premium the cuban media for a long time has not had the accessibility that American Media has back in the states to the United States president , and so it is something that he truly is used to. He doesnt have to answer any questions. But here we were in a different format, in a different time period and he had to answer. Calvin and then there was that very awkward moment at the end, and well show you that picture coming up at 5 00 when mr. Castro walked up to president obama, t ty didnt know whether to shake hands or not but itnded up being something very weird and it seemed very awkward at the end. We will show that you coming up at 5 00. But we want to take you now to what happened with Michelle Obama today. President for those bilateral talks, and she w snt with him at the wreathlaying ceremony, but she happened to be at whats called the old cuban factory in old havana and there she met with ten teenage girls who were selected. They were there to talk about art, but they were also there to talk about mrs. Obama empowering young girls, and she even said to them you can ask me anything. And when you empower young girls, you also empower the people family. So Michelle Obama meeting with young tnage girls about her let girls learn initiative, bringing it here to havana, cuba, to talk with a selected group of young people. And were going to have a lot more coming up on t both of them as they will have a state dinner tonight at the revolutionary palace but well have a lot more andcomprehensive coverage what has happened so far here in havana. What a day it h been. Janine and laurie, ill send it back to you. Laurie thank you so much. Discussion about with our local10 senior political reporter michael putney. It only took half an hour for you to get a vicinitying list in the mail. Michael for anybody who wasnt watching at the News Conference this afternoon, jenn cross of cnn asked raul castro how many Political Prisoners do you have and why dont you release them. Andrea mitchell of nbc repeated the question later. And raul castro got defiant and angry and said, well, who is on that list . Give me a name. Give me a name of somebody on the list. Well, about half an hour after it was over in my email i got from the cuban commissio on human rights and national reconciltion a list of Political Prisoners, and they say there are 1,141. Here is the list, the print out of the email i got. This didnt ake long at all. Somebody to say, heres a list, and then yet another group called the victims of communism list of 51 prisoners of conscience in cuba. So if raul castro needs a list, hey, ive got a couple right here. Janine and you know that awkward moment at the end of the News Conference that calvin and hatzel were alluding to, it was almost like the end of a boxing match, i think, and sort of raul kind of grabbed his arm and almost wanted to brag dg himm out of there. It was elle something else. Laurie that was after saying enough, pretty much. Michael it was a very awkward moment. First well see it at 5 00 but we can industry describe it now. Raul castro sort of grabbed obama by the biceps and started to lift his arm, except obama wasnt having any of it. He wasnt going to raise his arm. And then raul castro almost pushed the president , president obama out of the off the stage and out of that room, grabbing his arm. It was just very strange. Laurie a power play, perhaps. Michael here we go. You see castro grab his arm like that, and then they dont know whether theyre goioi to shake hands or whatever. Now, watch castro, well, he laurie kind of yoree sentenced the exit, and then he wants president obama to walk out first, but he very much wanted to hur at the end of that press conference after taking that huge step, though, of at latest takin questions. For the first time. Janine and then at the end he said too many questions, so he moved on. Michael our president is used to sparring with reporters. Raul castro is not. Laurie we will have much more no doubt. Do stay with uses for complete coverage on president Barack Obamas historic visit to cuba. There are so many moments to come. Look for us in the next half hgur. A specific look at how the uncuban community here in south florida is reacting to the president s trip.

Starting to get a little gray, a little hazy out there but this cool weather, duly durda is here to join us and we have to tell you i liked it a lot. Janine we did, although we had the feeling this might be our last shot at a cool front. Meteorologist indeed, ladies. What i difference a d makes. Yesterday a high of 86 degrees, our lows in the 70s. In 60s and its only going to get cooler all thanks to that cold front that cleared the area. Unfounately, though, we still that have stubborn cloud deck inh space. Strata cumulus clouds will continue to filter that sunshine throughout the rest of the evening. Cutler we have the 60s all across south florida. 66 in pembroke pines, 66 in hialeah, 64 in kendall. And 66 in marathon. But its t winds, its that brisk breeze that make it had feel really comfortable, cool and refreshing with the winds out of the northwest. Thats our cool air connection.

Now, as you can see, taking a look at the radar all is quiet each though we do have those clouds around so i dont want you to be c ncerned p. If you have plans tonight the with kids, dont worry. Youre for the going to get rained out. Cloud cover is across the sououthern half the state and push into cord the western atlant. We have this dome of High Pressure thats located right now over texas into louisiana. Thats providing for a dry air mass in the upper level. We love High Pressure. Its our fair weather friend we like to say because it provide for a north breeze and provide forthe dry atmosphere. How long will it last . Looking to the weswe have another storm system set up that will provide for big changes in the forecastp by the end of the work week. Currently look at these temperatures from coast to coast. The southwest steamy right now with temperatures in the 80s. Weve got the 60s across the gulf coasttates, a frigid northeast as theyre dealing with a clipper that will continue to bring them snow and even cooler conditions thin. Look at this.

Now, Broward County is looking pretty good but we dof this one crash we are watching, this is on i95 northbound right around sheridan streebut we are seeing the green there so it doesnt look like thats really impacting your commute. 60 miles per hour. Janine. Janine ahead at 4 30 we continue to follow president obamas historic visit to cuba. A breakdown of the president s second day and the debate that florida. Laurie i want to take to those live p ctures in havana as president obama is now going to address the crowd of about 200 at this entrepreneur shi event at a localrewery. Lets listen. Cuban survey, i hear they great pollo. Annos and, of course, cerveza. But today were here to work so i want to thank all of you for being part of this unprecedented event. The cuban government, the u. S. Chamber of commerce, and the new u. S. Cuba business council. I also want to express by appreciation because we are joined on this trip by nearly 40 members of congress as well as some of americas top Business Leaders and innovator who are eager to invest in hugh and its people. And most importantly invest in cuba. Want it to welcome all the extraordinary entrepreneurs, men and women, who are here from across cuba. Now, im not here to give a big speech. Im going to do that tomorrow. What i really want to do is hear from you and have a conversation about what we can a chief together. But i do want to begin by stepping back and talking about the forces and hopes that bring us together here today. Can be understood through the labor of the cuban people. For centuries under colonial rule and then during decades of american involvement, the toil of the cuban people was often used to enrich others as opposed to the people who were doing the work. And then for much of the past half century it was virtually impossible for cubans to operate their own businesses. But in recent years thats begun to change. To its credit, the cuban government has adopted some reforms. Cuba is welcoming more foreign investment. Cubans can now buy and sell property. And today many cans own their own homes and apartments. Its easier for cubans to travel, to buy a cell phone, for farmers to start cooperatives, and for a family to start their n business. The United States has been proud to help. Shortly after i took office, we said that cuban americans could they are families h re in cuba, and we allowed cuban americans to visit more often. Across this island cubans have used those remittances, often to start businesses, and when cuban americans come visit, they oft bring supplies and materials. We also made it easier for cubanentrepreneurs to import and to export. And since we have made it easier to travel to cuba, a lot more americans are vising the island. You may have noticed. So the cuban economy is beginning to change, and just look at the results. Groups like cuba yimprende are training a new j jks entrepreneurs. Today half a million cubans, including some of you, are proud rung your own restaurants, cafes, beauty salons, barber shops or working as artists, seamstresses, and taxi drivers. Your busininses now employ about workforce. With help there Services Look air b b more americans are staying at your cast as you particularlyoris and eating at your [ speaking in spanish ] like my family did last night. The food waseally good, even if my spanish is not that great. [ laughter ] those of you who run your on business know what this means. You can earn a little more money for your family. You can provide more for your children and then therors the pride from creating something new and improving the livesf those around you, and thats the power of entrepreneur shi. Itsbout selfdetermination, the opportunity to forge your own future. Its the belief that even if you dont have much, maybe just a kitchen or a sewing machine or a car, if youre willing to work hard, yocan make your own way and improve your situation in its the spirit ofouth, talented and driven daring young people, like so many of you, ready to make your mark on the world. Its an investment in the future, because as we have seen in america, businesses that start small, en in a garage, can grow into some of the worlds most Successful Companies and change the way we work and the way we live and connect with eh other. Thats the spirit of entrepreneurship, and thats what were encouragi here today. Because cubas economic future, its ability to create more jobs and a growing middle class and meet the aspirations of the cuban people depends on growth in the private sector as well as government action. And its not easy. In the United States we work to help entrepreneurs and Small Businesses get the resources they need because it can be a struggle to get a new venture off the ground. Around the world we help young people and entrepreneurs Access Training and skills to put theirideas into action. The challenges you face as entrepreneurs in cuba. Now, many of the changes that our two countries have already announced, including today, will help youo meet some of the those challenges. More americans coming to cuba means more customers for your businesses. More americans using t t dollar will mean that they will spend more as well. There will be more channels for you to import supplies and equipment. More americans will be able to buy your arts, crafts, food, cubanorigin software, as well as, of course, cuban cigars. We also know that around the world entrepreneurs flourish when theres an environment that encourages their success, when professionals like architects and engineers and lawyers are allowed to start their own businesses as well. When entrepreneurs can get loans from banks, capital to start and expand their business. Markets where you can buy supplies, and when theres a single issues and a modern infrastructure psycho get your goods to market and import supplies. And perhaps most importantly when everybody has a chance to succeed, including women and afrocubans. These are all aas where the United States hopes to be a partner as cuba moves forward. And i can tell you one of the reasons im so confident in the potential of the cuban people is because you he some important advantages. Your commiment to education and very high literacy rates, that gives you an enormous advantage in the 21st century. Thats been an investment that has been made here in cuba. Your ingenuity. Who else could keep rung all these years. Youve got m me than 300 million potential american customers and one of the worlds most dynamic and you he more than 2 million talented, successful cuban americans, some of whom joined me on this trip, readyo invest in you and help pursue your dreams and have deep family commitments, and and dp roots in cuban culture. So im absolutely convinced if just given a chance, more cubans can succeed right herere at home in the cuba that you love. So im here today to say that america wants to be your partner around this sprint American Companies moving forward with new commercial families ge is goingg to sell more products from aviation to technology. Cleaver will be the first u. S. Company to baled factory here in re than 50 years. Theyre going to build tractors for can farmers. Starwood will become the first u. S. S. Otel that operates here in nearly 60 years. Anan marriott plans to come as well. And theyll help training cubans in the hospitality industry. Expected to pull into havana in may, and i will Carnival Cruise and i will keepsake one of the best ways to help cubans succeed and improve their lives would be for the u. S. Congress to lift the embargo once and for all. [ applause ] you know here today were doing even more to empower cuban entrepreneurs. I know youve been network week each other and potential american partners. Innovators in business like air b b and prine chesske are sharing the things they have learned. We have a shark named may dont shon john. For those of you who dont know theres a show in america called the shark tank which is an outstanding show where o bring their ideas and present them and they try to get some financing right there on the air, and its a fun show to watch. Julie hanna supports entrepreneurs all over the world with microfinancing, so give them your best pit h. They just might bite. And decideo best intense were also announcing some new commitments today. As part of our Young Leaders in the americas initiative, were going to welcome up to 15 young cuban entrepreneurs to the United States to help them get the training and skills to grow their own business. For the first time well welcome cubans to our annual Global Entrepreneurship summit, which ill host in Silicon Valley later this year. And later this year our Small Business administrator Maria Contreras sweet who is here with us today there she is shes going to lead a delegation of Business Leaders had to promote more entrepreneurship in cuba. More cuban entrepreneurs to the internet. Some are here today, including gutierrez who kind olmes a, an app to connect cubanso restaurants, and infoet med, connecting doctors and students 69. More companies are going online at wifi hot spots but still very few gans have Internet Access, although iust learned that my skip with benfillo got 2 million hit here in cuba, so i think anyone with Internet Access paid attention here. And but in terms of Internet Access, even those who have it often are using old dialup connections that can be kevin and slow. I dont even remember the sound of the phone. Neee. You know, the so new technology has come and we need to bring it to cuba. If we had internet, and one cuban entrepreneur said, we so america wants hope to you take off, and verizon will help deliver direct land line phone connections between cuba and the United States. Sisco has announced it will help cuban students develop their i. T. Skills. The american hightech firm stripe is partnering with a startup circle here in havana to help cubans start verifies and do business online. So the bottom line is this we believe in the cuban people, we believe in artists like ileana del rey oh who designs and illustrates her own goods. 99 cuban designs, she calls it. We believe in merchants like sandra m medici who says one of the most important things in the cuban nature is perseverance, optimism, and our capacity to find a solution to any obstacle in the way. Who said, i think these changes in cuba, theres no turning back. Another who said, this opens us up to the world. And one who also said, just give us the chance, just give us the chance. Well, as your friend and as your partner, the United States of america wants to help you get that chance, and were so grateful that were off to this outstanding start at this event here today. Matureos gracias. Thank you. Muchos gracias. Thank you very much. Thank you. [ applause ] thank you. As i said, i didnt want to just talk. I want to also hear from you. So ive asked to join me one of outstanding journalists in the United States, an entrepreneur herself who works to empower she is a proud cuban american who on this visit has brought her children to cuba to meet their cousins for the very first time.

Our hi there. Good afternoon, south florida. The time is is 4 47. I know weve been overcast from time to time throughout the day, peeks of sunshine peeping through some of that cloud cover. We will wont continue t t keep that cloud cover in place. The good news those clouds are not producing precipitation. The atmosphere is relatively dry because of a cold front that cleared south florida. Not only did it take the heat and the humidity with it but it also provided in the wake of it some cooler, crier drier, more comfortable conditions. Its been a perry refreshing day, right . Right now we haveemperatures 64 degrees. In fort lauderdale, key west checking in at 64. Pembroke p nes 66. That northwest wind will keep this cool air connection through the overnight hours. Wind speeds between 8 to 14 to wind gusts even stronger. Thats been our big concern throughout the day, is tt now that the wind gusts are getting into the 20s and 30suyer the keys, going into the evening hours and tomorrow we are elting the risk of rip currents for boaters. Keep that in mind for your forecast the next 24 hours. As we go into the next few hours refreshing out there. Get out there and enjoy,aybe go for a walk or a run or if the kids of sports out this evening maybe you have to go to practice, youre going to enjoy a temperature of 65 degrees at 6 00 and then temperatures are going to start to drop. 63, cool and comfortable and breezy by 8 00. So again i know it doesnt look pretty out there but dont let this picture fool you. It feels so nice. Our Hollywood Beach cam. You can see a break had in some of the cloud cover in the again, everybody enjoying this nice breeze coming in from the north. With that said, even though we have those clouds in place we are dry. U heard me mention the atmosphere is relatively dry in the wake of a cold front but we will keep the blanket of cloud cover in place in the central half of the state. Dont worry. That cloud cover will be eventually pushing toward the south tomorrow provide can for more sunshine. We can thank High Pressure for that breeze keeping much of the nation in the southeast quiet and dry. Down to the 50s in atlanta. For us in miami 60 as well. The heat and humidity staying well across the southwest, and a bit of a cooldown for our friends across the northeast. Tomorrow High Pressure in the east, it will be cool, it will be breezy and we will keep our temperatures a bit miamidade aying into your wednesday, breezy conditions, and with our winds moving in offthe ocean by wednesday well start this gradual warmup. You will see the on the sevenday forecast. Dont forget, though, we do havethat i will vated risk of rip currents for beachgoers the breeze will continue wednesday. As we get rid of the breeze well start to warm and increase that chance of showers going dont go anywhere.

Lenna laurie, janine, of course, the people who are most upset are the people who have the most personal connection and had felt the most personal loss, and even the decades that have gone by have not dulled that sense of loss. Some of them came right here, out here to the Street Corner to protest, and theiressage is the president s trip to them feels like a betrayal. La planadora, a steamroller, a smsml protest is all spectacle and symbolism not unlike the president s trip to cuba. Air force one for us he have mama businessmen. They are looking for money. They dt care about the suffering of my people. Glenna this particular ganization and these very people have been among the loudest local contradicts of the castro government for did critics of the castro governmnnt for decades. Today the anger is toward consider a surrender to raul castro. For others of generations once or twice removed, renewed relations and relax rules might signal progress, though the shape of that progress is hard to predict. I think it will come eventually. Its just somebody has teak the initiative. I mean, you know, i think its the better part o o if were there first. Thiss community, this hill havana neighborhood is really changed so much over the decade. It used to be maybe not too many years ago that protests to a president s trip to cuba, to a communist cuba would stretch for bloc, last all day, probably all night.

We recognize the position of the presidint president obama and his administration against the block aide, and his repeated appeals to congress to have it removed. The most reason measures adopted by his administratatn are positive but insufficient.
