Addis Ababa, April 17, 2021 (FBC) -Raúl Castro says he is resigning as Cuban Communist Party leader, ending his family’s six decades in power.
Castro, 89, told a party congress that he is handing over the leadership to a younger generation “full of passion and anti-imperialist spirit”.
His successor will be voted in at the end of the four-day congress.
The move, which was expected, ends the era of formal leadership by him and his brother Fidel Castro, which began with the 1959 revolution.
