It's still going to be communist-governed, so the blockade will still be in place.

Not if Dubya gets his way.

They've been trying to get their way for 5 decades and not managed it.

it'll not fuckin happen like especially if his bro gets handed the raines.

The EU is hoping to engage in new talks with them now Fidel has stepped down

Obama said he would be looking to change the relationship with Cuba if he gets in too

So could be good news for Cuba
