El Cafe Cubano [1] reports that Cardinal Jaime Ortega has met with the Ladies in White to inform them that the Pope's schedule is “too busy” and he will likely not be able to meet with them during his visit; Translating Cuba, meanwhile, publishes a letter to the Pope [2] in which Jeovany Jimenez Vega tells him about “the desperate economic situation” in the country.
