Castro went out to state that the election ruled in favor of the Republicans as the result of racism and frustration in America. "The most reactionary sectors in the United States are sharpening their teeth," Castro said, predicting that "all power (will fall) to the extreme right in the United States."
Castro has been involved in politics in the communist nation since the Cuban Revolution. He resigned as President in 2008 and currently serves as the First Secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba. |
