HAVANA, July 10 (Reuters) - Cuban Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz said on Thursday night that there were no divisions within Cuba's leadership, days after "USA Today" published an interview with the grandson of former Cuban leader Raul Castro in which he said he was open to negotiating with U.S. President Donald Trump.
Raul Guillermo Rodriguez Castro's unusual offer of dialogue has sparked speculation of splits within Cuba's power structure over how to engage with the U.S. The 42-year-old, known as "El Cangrejo," holds no formal government office in Cuba.
Marrero rejected such speculation in his comments on social media on Thursday.
"Conversations have been held with representatives of the U.S. government aimed at seeking solutions, through dialogue, to bilateral differences," he wrote.
