Cuban man waving US flag in Havana was arrested yesterday during historic arrival of the American cruise ship Adonia operated by Carnivals, Fathom Cruises. ABC Action News reporter interweaved Daniel Miranda, who said that he has no fear of Castro regime and he wants to lead new kind of revolution. 

Minutes after Miranda was confronted by group of locals who didn’t agree with his speech and the waving of US flag in Cuba, police intervened and arrested him.

The cruise ship Adonia set sail on Sunday from the port of Miami bound for Cuba, becoming the first ship to cover the route in more than 50 years. Aboard the ship are traveling about 600 passengers, of which 25 are Cuban Americans. The arrival of the ship was embroiled in controversy because Cuba didn’t allow Cuban exiles from entering by sea, but finally ended this dispute on 22 April.
