Trinidad and Tobago's Newsday"HAVANA: Fidel Castro, ailing and 81, announced yesterday he was resigning as Cuba’s president, ending a half-century of autocratic rule as a communist icon and a relentless opponent of US policy around the globe.
Foiling repeated US attempts to bring him down, he is leaving on his own terms, as the world’s longest-serving head of state.
Castro, however, insisted in his resignation letter, published in the Cuba Communist Party’s official newsletter Granma, that he won’t disappear — or stay quiet if he sees his revolution going astray."
