Barack Obama has become the first US president in 88 years to visit Cuba as Air Force One touches down in Havana.
The visit is part of a normalising of relations after decades of animosity between the Cold War foes and Mr Obama will hold talks with Cuban counterpart Raul Castro on Monday but some critics are saying that the trip is premature and that human rights issues need to be addressed.
Although i am sure that Raul Castro will bring up America's many Human Rights abuses, it is expected the Cubans will be more willing to overlook them at such a fragile time in the new relationship.

Let's count how many times in the past 50 years Cuba has invaded other countries, how many leaders it has violently removed, how many countries has it interfered with the ruling Government, how many civilians it has killed, how many rendition and torture sites it has, how many prisoners it holds with no charge, how many prisoners it has executed and what percentage of its population are imprisoned.
Know let's count Americas...
So you're not going to count the human rights abuses then? Just going to ignore that? Probably wise, you won't come out it looking very good. Move on, nothing to see here!
