There are several possible ways to interpret the former Cuban president's message: a fading grumble from an old communist, a message from the current government that not all are on board with increasing trade, or a message directed at internal Cuban audiences and not so much at the U.S.

Congressman Rodney Davis of Taylorville represents part of Bloomington Normal. He says it was certainly a message.
