CUBA-CASTRO-NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
General view of the Cuban National Assembly during its second annual session 22 December, 2006 in Havana. Cuba's National Assembly speaker Ricardo Alarcon opened the body's key annual session Friday with no mention whatsoever of ailing Cuban leader Fidel Castro, who did not attend. Amid uncertainty over the health of the 80-year-old Castro, there was an empty seat where he normally sits. The Cuban leader has missed just one other gathering of the assembly in three decades. Castro ceded power officially, but temporarily, on July 31 to his brother Raul Castro, 75, the defense chief. Fidel Castro underwent surgery in July after intestinal bleeding.
