Fidel says there will be no change

Not surprisingly, the dictator Fidel say no changes will come from his retirement.
The suffering people of Cuba will have to endure their misery for even longer. Castro's retirement is but a hoax. Fidel will control things as long as he lives. That is the nature of the oligarchy that is communism. I still hope and pray that the Cuban people will one day taste freedom.

Fidel Castro
HAVANA — Fidel Castro on Saturday rejected the idea of major political change after Cuba's parliament chooses a new president — his final published comments as the nation's longtime leader.
The article on the front page of the Communist Party Granma was one of a flurry of recent columns and announcements from Castro, who is retiring after 49 years as head of Cuba.
Writing under his new title, "Comrade Fidel," the 81-year-old Castro scoffed at suggestions in news reports that his retirement, announced Tuesday, would lead to political changes aided by Cuban exiles in the United States.
