Raul Castro is to come to France for the first state visit ever of a Cuban President in the country, a trip that could help boosting French investments and developing stronger economic, cultural and touristic ties between Paris and Havana. Castro is to arrive on Saturday, Jan. 30, 2016 for the private part of his trip ahead of the official visit on Monday and Tuesday, only 8 months after French Socialist President Francois Hollande’s one-day stop in Havana.
