IG: The Instant Guide to Raul Castro

Raul Castro is the younger brother of Fidel Castro he was elected President of Cuba at the 24 February 2008, he is a person that doesn't like to appearing on public and making speeches he always wear military uniforms ocasionally suit and he has non of the carisma of his elder brother. People says that the first time when they saw him was in the sixties besides of Fidel and de perception of Raul was a very hard an docmatic person for many years.

Raul Castro has introduced a series of liberalising reforms in Cuba he has been making many changes. Unlike his brother, Raul Castro has allowed ordinary citizens to buy DVD-players, PC's, consuming products. He has been breaking many prohibitions.

I think this is the start of a new Cuba more modern and fair for the cubans and they will have more changes when Fidel dies, but they will be still living governed in the dinasty Castro for many years.
