    Report of Summer Activities for TCD Research Grant Anmari Alvarez Aleman Research and conservation of Antillean manatee in the east of Cuba. The research activities developed during May-August, 2016 were developed with the goal to strengthen the research project developed to understand the conservation status of Antillean manatees in Cuba. Some of the research effort were implemented in the east of Cuba with the purpose of gather new samples, data and information about manatees and its interaction with fisherman in this part of the country. We separated our work in two phases. The first was a scoping trip to the east of Cuba with the purpose of meet and talk with coast guards, forest guards, fishermen, and key persons in these coastal communities in order to get them involved with the stranding and sighting network in Cuba. During the second phase we continued a monitoring program started in the Isle of Youth in 2010 with the goal of understand important ecological aspects of manatees. During this trip we developed boat surveys, habitat assessments and the manatee captures and tagging program. Phase 1: Scoping trip, May 2016 During the trip we collected information about manatee presence and interaction with fisheries in the north east part of Cuban archipelago and also collected samples for genetic studies. During the trip we visited fishing ports and protected areas in Villa Clara, Sancti Spiritus, Ciego de Avila, Camaguey, Las Tunas, Holguin, Baracoa and Santiago de Cuba. The visited institutions and areas were (Figure 1): 1. Nazabal Bay, Villa Clara. Biological station of the Fauna Refuge and private fishery port.

    POWER ELITE OF CUBA General of the Army Raúl Castro (86 years old) First Secretary of the Communist Party An intolerant Marxist-Leninist, Raúl Castro is a highly organized, cautious and clannish leader with an unwavering commitment to Communism, Russia, Iran and Venezuela. In March 1953, Raúl traveled to Vienna (four months before the “Moncada”) to attend the Moscow sponsored World Youth Conference. Afterwards, he went to Budapest, Prague and Bucharest. He liked what he saw. During this trip he established a long-lasting friendship with Nikolai Leonov, a KGB espionage officer that later turned out to be a useful link with the Kremlin. Raúl recalled that from that moment on “he was ready to die for the Communist cause.” Declassified KGB documents offer evidence that Fidel Castro “deliberately made a Marxist of Raul.” At 22, back in Cuba, Raúl joined the Cuban Communist Party Youth Branch (CCP). Latter while in Mexico for the “Granma” operation, Raúl struck up a close ideological friendship with Ernesto “Che” Guevara and forged a commitment to create a Marxist society in Cuba. In 1963, Raúl was the official link between Fidel and Nikita Khrushchev to deploy nuclear missiles in Cuba. At 86, he still remains strongly attached to his lifelong ideology. While he is healthy and running Cuba, individual rights and private property will be forbidden in the island. (A car and a house are the exceptions). There are reports stating that Raúl is having health issues. Commander of the Rebel Army José Machado Ventura (87 years old) Second Secretary of the Communist Party A medical doctor, Machado was appointed to the Politburo in 1975.
