Castro's biographer notes
tie to Mexico 5y5860
The
Washington Times,
Nov. 30, 2004.
Mexico City, Mexico, Nov. 30 (UPI) -- Cuban
President Fidel Castro has always considered
Mexico his second home, Reforma reported
Tuesday.
"For Fidel, Mexico is the same as
it was for Jose Marti: a second homeland,"
Castro's biographer Katiuska Blanco told
the newspaper. "Both found close friends
here."
Blanco also said Castro's legacy will live
on long after his death.
"It is very difficult for someone
to have the stature of Fidel, where one
doesn't want to say that the Cuban Revolution
will not follow its course," Blanco
said. "The young and the not-so-young
Cuban revolutionaries have considered the
reincarnation of Fidel."
Castro, 78, has ruled Cuba since 1959.
Blanco will present her new book "All
the Time at the Cedars: A Familiar Landscape
of Fidel Castro Ruz" Sunday at the
Book Fair in Guadalajara.
