Cuban intelligence agent Fernando Gonzalez, known as one of the "Cuban Five," arrives for a press conference in Havana, Cuba, Monday, June 2, 2014. Gonzalez who spent years in jail in the United States says the exchange of five Taliban detainees for a U.S. Army sergeant held captive in Afghanistan could set a precedent for a similar swap with Cuba. Gonzalez said Monday that the only thing needed is political will by the Obama administration to negotiate a swap of U.S. government subcontractor Alan Gross for three Cuban agents still imprisoned in the United States.(AP Photo/Franklin Reyes)
