This is unconfirmed, but an anti-Castro exile in Canada has claimed that thanks to Iranian spies, King Raul discovered that his own son had met secretly with CIA agents in Turkey, in an attempt to oust his father and his military junta. At the time in the 2010’s, Raul, “El Tuerto” was head of a counterintelligence unit. The source of this information also claims that King Raul immediately dissolved his son’s unit and removed him from the inner circle of power and from the line of dynastic succession. So, if this is true, it helps explain why El Tuerto has virtually disappeared from view.

Very interesting . . . let’s see how this rumor floats or if it gains credibility. Watch the video below in Spanish and read the article that follws it in English.

From Periódico Cubano

Antonio Tang, a member of the Alpha 66 organization and a resident of Canada for years, was interviewed by influencer Darwin Santana and revealed exclusive information about Brigadier General Alejandro Castro Espín, son of Raúl Castro, who dared to secretly operate with the Americans.

According to Tang, the “one-eyed” as the colonel, who lost an eye in military activities, is also known, secretly traveled to Turkey to meet with officials from the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Only the Cuban military attaché in the Castro embassy in Canada knew about this dialogue. However, Iranian secret services intercepted the meeting and provided evidence to Cuba, leading Raúl Castro to retaliate against his only son.

It was then that Castro Ruz, upon discovering his son’s actions, decided to dissolve the powerful intelligence group led by Alejandro. This decision not only marked a turning point in Castro Espín’s career but also highlighted the tensions and power struggles within the inner circle of the revolution.

Since then, Alejandro Castro Espín has remained in the shadows, with rumors about his position and influence circulating among whispers and speculations. The lack of visibility and the supposed reduction of his power suggest severe punishment and a fall from grace reflecting the harsh realities of Cuban internal politics.

The personal opinion of the interviewee on the program “El Mundo de Darwin” suggests that “unlike what everyone says, in reality, ‘the one-eyed’ was a supporter of socialist transformation. Let’s call it something, I don’t know, fraud change, whatever you want, but the man was in favor of change, unlike Fidel, who was still alive and all the stubborn old folks.”

In that sense, Tang explains that the Castro elite, fearful of losing control and facing the consequences of their actions, did not want to seize the crucial opportunity for significant change on the island that could have occurred with Barack Obama’s diplomatic approach.

Alejandro Castro Espín, born on October 9, 1965, in Havana, is the only son of Raúl Castro and Vilma Espín. He is an engineer and holds a master’s degree in International Relations. He participated in the Angolan War, where he suffered a significant eye injury despite not having fought on the front lines.

With his father’s rise to the presidency, Alejandro gained visibility, assuming key roles in intelligence and counterintelligence. Despite speculation about his political future, his influence remains primarily in the sphere of counterintelligence, avoiding the idea of dynastic succession in the Cuban political system.
