| Castro insists US go further, lift 'cruel' embargo |
| 2009-04-14 |
| Former Cuban President Fidel Castro says the U.S. did not go far enough in announcing plans to soften sanctions against his country, and he insists that real change in bilateral relations will come only when Washington lifts its "cruel" trade embargo. President Barack Obama announced Monday that Americans will now be able to make unlimited transfers of money and visits to relatives in Cuba. Unlimited money. Unlimited emmigration. Unlimited opportunities to recruit spies. And the Castro boyz are still not satisfied. Under the Bush administration rules, Cuban-Americans were eligible to travel here only every three years and send up to $300 to relatives every three months. $100/month is more than enough? The average salary in Cuba is $20/month. |
