Castro is now a fugitive from US justice, Rubio reminded us.

Yesterday, when announcing the indictment of former Cuban dictator Raul Castro for conspiracy to kill US citizens, acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche said that when someone kills Americans, it doesn’t matter how far they are or how much time has passed, the US will get to them.

Immediately, the speculation began: Will Donald J. Trump launch an op such as the one that captured Nicolas Maduro? Will the US invade Cuba and overthrow the Cuban dictatorship of Miguel Díaz-Canel?

So, today, as soon as the Secretary of State appeared in public, he was asked about Castro’s indictment and eventual capture.

“Reporter: How do you intend to get Raul Castro to the United States?

Rubio: Well, that was the, a grand jury in South Florida returned an indictment of Raul Castro, nothing to do with us. The grand jury, the evidence is clear, he admits to it. Raul Castro openly admits and brags about, he shot down, gave the order to shoot down civilian airplanes.

Reporter: How would you get him here?

Rubio: Well, I’m not going to talk about how we’re going to get him here. If we were trying to get him here, why would I say to the media what our plans are about that? I know you have to ask, but why would I answer that? The bottom line, he’s at that point, he becomes a fugitive of American justice. And well, if there’s an announcement of a positive, I will tell you, we’ll tell you afterwards, not before.”

SECRETARY RUBIO: Our preference in Cuba and anywhere in the world is always a negotiated diplomatic settlement. But if there’s a threat to our national security, the President has a right and an obligation to address that threat. pic.twitter.com/X24pnp9q5v
