Castro resigns as president.
Fidel Castro announced his resignation as president of Cuba and commander-in-chief of Cuba's military Tuesday, according to a letter published in the state-run newspaper, Granma.The resignation ends nearly a half-century of iron-fisted rule that inspired revolutionaries but frustrated 10 U.S. presidents.Castro revealed his plans without notice by publishing a letter in the middle of the night in state-run newspaper Granma.
I am simply shocked, i'm not cuban, but i'm still pretty shocked that Castro reigned, I always thought that he would die before resigning. I don't intend to be a pesimist, but something is just weird....after half a century he's just going to quit? I don't know but something doesn't convince me.
