Global News: Cuba's former president Raul Castro marked the 60th anniversary of the country's Revolution on January 1, amidst pressing diplomatic relations with the United States and a flailing economy. 

On New Year's Day of 1959, Cuba's U.S.-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista fled as Fidel Castro and his bearded revolutionaries seized control of the Caribbean country. Alongside Fidel was his brother, Raul Castro, who now heads the country's Communist Party. His successor Miguel Díaz-Canel was also in attendance.
