BEIJING -- Cuban leader Raul Castro is visiting key trading partner
China for talks with President Hu Jintao and other leaders in Beijing.

Castro arrived Wednesday to begin a four-day visit. Cuban state media
said he was accompanied by Vice President Ricardo Cabrisas Ruiz and
Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez. Neither side has said what issues are
to be discussed.

Castro visited Vietnam and China while defense minister, a post he
occupied from 1959 until he replaced older brother Fidel as president in
2008.

During a 1997 trip to China, he spoke approvingly of the Asian giant's
mixture of socialism and market liberalizations.

Cuba is China's biggest commercial partner in the Caribbean. Bilateral
trade totaled $1.8 billion in 2010, state-run website Cubadebate said.
