Afp, Havana
Cuban President Fidel Castro, who relinquished power after an operation, is in stable condition and in good spirits, according to a statement from the leader read on Cuban television Tuesday.Castro said he needed time to recover in the first public statement from the strongman since he announced late Monday that his brother Raul would take over as president temporarily. "I can say the situation is stable, but a general recovery in health requires time," the statement said. "All I can say is that the situation will remain stable for several days before a verdict can be reached." "I am in perfectly good spirits, and the important thing is that everything in the country function and function perfectly well," it said.
