Cuba's former president Fidel Castro, one of the world's longest-serving and most iconic leaders, has died aged 90 and US President-elect Donald Trump's reaction to this news shocked one and all. "Today, the world marks the passing of a brutal dictator who oppressed his own people for nearly six decades.

Fidel Castro's legacy is one of firing squads, theft, unimaginable suffering, poverty and the denial of fundamental human rights," Trump said in a statement. “All of the concessions that Barack Obama has granted the Castro regime were done through executive order, which means the next president can reverse them and that I will do unless the Castro regime meets our demands,” he said in September during the election campaign.
