Cuba just got its first new leader since the Castros took power — here's what's in store
- For the first time in six decades, Cuba has a leader outside of the Castro family.
- Cuba's National Assembly elected Miguel Díaz-Canel as president, replacing Raúl Castro who has led Cuba for 12 years since taking over for his brother, Fidel.
- Castro will resign from head of state on Thursday, but remain leader of the Communist party.
- Díaz-Canel was groomed for this new leadership position, but his future impact on the economy and foreign policy are uncertain.
