Castro Era Comes to a Close
卡斯特罗时代即将结束
The Castro era is coming to a close in Cuba after almost six decades. Fidel Castro took control of the country in 1959 and remained in power until 2008 when, due to poor health, he handed the power over to his brother Raul. This Thursday, Raul Castro is expected to step down as president and appoint vice president Miguel Diaz-Canel as president. Raul Castro will likely remain the leader of the Communist Party of Cuba, which Diaz-Canel is a long-term member of in this one-party state. Most Cubans today, including Diaz-Canel, have never had a leader that was not a member of the Castro family.
经过近六十年后,古巴的卡斯特罗统治时代即将结束。菲德尔·卡斯特罗于1959年掌管古巴,一直持续到2008年,由于身体原因,他将政权交到弟弟劳尔手中。本周四,劳尔·卡斯特罗辞去总统一职并任命副总统米格尔·迪亚斯·卡内尔为总统。劳尔·卡斯特罗可能继续担任古巴共产党领袖,迪亚斯·卡内尔也是这个一党制国家的长期党派成员。如今的多数古巴人,包括迪亚斯·卡内尔在内,还没有经历过卡斯特罗家族以外的领导人。
