Fidel Castro: 'I Don't Trust the US, Nor Have I Spoken with Them'

Fidel Castro does not "trust the US, nor have I spoken with them," the revolutionary icon, 88, said in a letter attributed to him and read Monday on state television.

"That does not represent — far from it — a rejection of peacefully settling conflicts," said the letter, a week after communist Cuba and the United States held landmark talks in Havana as they attempt to normalize ties.
