Fidel Castro: Obama should've met with me

Fidel Castro is not pleased with President Obama following his visit to Cuba last week.

In Granma, the official state newspaper of the Cuban Communist Party, the former Cuban leader was not pleased that Obama met with current Cuban President Raul Castro on his visit, but not his brother Fidel, among a number of other things.

"Native populations do not exist at all in the minds of Obama," Castro wrote in a 1,500-word letter. "Nor does he say that racial discrimination was swept away by the Revolution; that retirement and salary of all Cubans were enacted by this before Mr. Barack Obama was 10 years old."

Castro criticized Obama's calls to "forget the past" and "look to the future."More from the Washington Examiner

"My modest suggestion is that he reflects and doesn't try to develop theories about Cuban politics," Castro wrote of the president.
