VOICED : Detienen opositores poco antes de arribo de Obama a Cuba

On the eve of Barack Obama's historic visit to Cuba, several opposition protesters were detained in Havana. The protesters, including leaders Danilo Maldonado and Berta Soler, were advocating for human rights when they were surrounded by police and pro-government groups. The Damas de Blanco were labeled as mercenaries by these groups. This visit marks the first by a U.S. president to Cuba in 88 years, with Obama planning to deliver a speech to the Cuban people, broadcast live on television.
