Cuban opposition activist Raúl Borges dies at 86, son remains imprisoned

Raúl Borges Álvarez, a prominent Cuban opposition figure who campaigned for decades for the release of his son Ernesto Borges Pérez and other political prisoners, has died in Havana at 86. His death removes a vocal advocate for political prisoners in Cuba, though the broader context of political repression remains unchanged. The event is notable for its symbolic impact on the opposition movement but has no immediate market implications.
