In an asap podcast, NICOLAS B. TATRO asks AP Havana bureau chief ANITA SNOW whether anything has changed under Fidel's brother, Raul.
He may be ailing, but Cuban leader Fidel Castro manages to keep getting headlines -- like when he wrote in the Cuban media on Tuesday that President Bush "threatens humanity with World War III."
All the while, though, his younger brother -- and designated successor -- has been running the show.
So what's life been like under Raul Castro? Has anything changed, and is the younger Castro more open to economic and political reforms?
During a visit to New York, AP Havana bureau chief ANITA SNOW took on the question in a conversation with AP Deputy International Editor NICOLAS B. TATRO -- and also talked about her recent experience living for a month on the average Cuban salary.
Listen to this asap podcast to find out what they had to say.
