An Opportunity for the Cuban People

I think it means that Castro is either already dead or very gravely sick. For them to have transferred power is a very unusual move. Over many years, we have seen Castro disappear for periods of time - never has it been made clear that he is out of it. I don’t know what will be the future of his health, but what we do know is that it is not appropriate for there to be a transfer from one dictator to another. After 47 years of dictatorship, it seems to me it is time for the Cuban people’s voices to be heard. So I hope that this is a moment for that opportunity.
