The aim of account Omar Torrijos in Panama or Deng Xiaoping in China they continued being leaders of the revolution although formally they would not be the heads of the State or the government. I castrate will continue supervising Cuba although others assume the formal leadership of the government or his FFAA. With that measurement he wants to guarantee a transition ordinate.

Fidel wants, thus, gradually to be disappearing of as much monopolized salary the political scene allowing that is a successor his who does not generate changes nor abrupt reactions. The retirement of I castrate will not lead to new changes majors in the economy or policy, although he is to hope that Cuba wants to follow the model of China and Vietnam to be abriendo its market while it iron maintains the monopoly of the policy into the hands of the unique party in the power.
