...lately there has been a seismic shift in his thinking that could accelerate the anti-embargo movement in Washington and open the doors to hundreds of thousands of American visitors to Cuba each year. Sources close to the Cuban leader confide that in the past year, he has been feeling uncharacteristic pangs of regret about the island's wrecked economy and what it will say about his legacy as a 20th century populist icon.
