I �I AROUND THE WoRLD ~ Raul Castro ousts top Cubans loyal to Fidel Castro The Daily Sentinel 8Y Wlu. WI.IIIIT ASSOCIATWD PRESS WAn'EI'I HAVANA - ~sident Raul Castro abruptly OU$led some of Cuba's most powerful officials M~y. remaking the government in the biggest shakeup since he took ' over from his ailing brother Fidel Castro a year ago. · The cbanges n-plaad some key Ftdelloyalists, including the longtime foreign minister, with men closer to Raul. They also re<luald the enormous pi)wers of a vice president credited with saving Cuba's economy after the fall of the Soviet Union. But analysts saw no immediate indication that the . changes are related to hopes for closer U .S.-Cuban ties now that both countries have new presidents. Several ministries were consolidated in response to President Raul Castro's calls for a "more compact and functional structure' for the often unwieldy communist bureaucracy t~at oversees nearly aU public activity on the island. The most sweeping leadership shakeup in years was dropped on Cubans almost as an afterthought - at the end of the midday news, following the weather and sports. The most prominent of those ousted, Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque, was the youngest of Cuba's top leaders and had been widely mentioned as a possible future president. Perez Roque, 43, had been Fidel Castro's personal secretary before becoming foreign minister · almost a decade ago, and he delighted in blustery, Fidel-like denunciations of U.S. policy. "He was someone who was very close to Fidel Castro and built his career working directly for Fidel Castro," said Phil Peters, a Cuba specialist at the Lexington Institute near Washington. · Perez Roque was replaced by his own deputy, Bruno Rodriguez, who once served as Cuba's ambassador to the United Nations. Officials announced no new post for Perez Roque. The surprise shake-up did not sit well with some Cubans, including Carmen Elizondo, 45, a ho11sewife with three children who said she heard the announcement on the news. "Ay! It left me feeling cold," Elizondo said. "I don't understand. Why make these chan~es, more than anything, Felipe? I had a lot of confidence in Felipe. I don't know any of those they put in place.' But retired worker Marta J.imenez, 65, was more optimistic. "People here are not used .to chan~e ," she said. "But I think thts was necessary and will be for the better. ·It's a restructuring of the country and I see that as good:" · . Peters said it was too early to say whether the changes could affect relations with the new administration of President Barack Obama, whose proposals for easing U.S. restnctions on Cuba have created hopes for the ~sumption of negotiations between the two countries on ending decades of hostilities. "There is nothing that indicates it's a reaction io anything in the United States," Peters said, noting that Raul Castro has long spoken of streamlining Cuba's govemrnent. The changes also seemed to cast further doubt on who could one day succeed Raul Castro. Cuba's current No. 2, Jose Ramon Machado Ventura, is a year older than the current president - and no heir apparent was clear from Mondafs list of new leaders. Vice President Carlos Lage, 57, apparently kept his job as vice president of the Council of State - a ruling body more powerful than the Cabinet. But he was replaced as Cabinet Secretary by Gen. Jose Amado Ricardo Guerra, who had been a top official in the military that Raul Castro ran for decades. Lage, a former Communist youth leader, was credited . with helping save Cuba's economy by designing mod- est economic reforms after the Soviet Union collapsed. Peters said tbere was no sigD Lage 's economic role was being reduced. Another former youth leader, Otto Rivero Torres, was removed as Cabinet vice president. Rivero Torres had already been dropped from the Council of State last year when Raul Castro became president. His replacement is hardliner Ramiro Valdez Menendez, who fought alongside Fidel, Raul and Ernesto "Cbe" Guevara in . the revolution · that toppled 'the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista in 1959. ·Longtime Es:onomy Minister Jose Luis RMriguez was replaced by Internal Commerce Minister Marino PageA2 Tuesday, March 3, a.o og Murillo Jorge; Finance Minister Geoqina Barreiro Fajardo w~ ~by LiDa Pedraza Rodriguez of the Communist Party's secretariat; and Labor Minister Alfmfo Morales Cartaya was replaced · by Vice Minister Margarita Marlene Gonzalez Fernandez.

WI.IIIIT ASSOCIATWD PRESS WAn'EI'I HAVANA - ~sident Raul Castro abruptly OU$led some of Cuba's most powerful officials M~y. remaking the government in the biggest shakeup since he took ' over from his ailing brother Fidel Castro a year ago. · The cbanges n-plaad some key Ftdelloyalists, including the longtime foreign minister, with men closer to Raul. They also re<luald the enormous pi)wers of a vice president credited with saving Cuba's economy after the fall of the Soviet Union. But analysts saw no immediate indication that the . changes are related to hopes for closer U .S.-Cuban ties now that both countries have new presidents. Several ministries were consolidated in response to President Raul Castro's calls for a "more compact and functional structure' for the often unwieldy communist bureaucracy t~at oversees nearly aU public activity on the island. The most sweeping leadership shakeup in years was dropped on Cubans almost as an afterthought - at the end of the midday news, following the weather and sports. The most prominent of those ousted, Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque, was the youngest of Cuba's top leaders and had been widely mentioned as a possible future president. Perez Roque, 43, had been Fidel Castro's personal secretary before becoming foreign minister · almost a decade ago, and he delighted in blustery, Fidel-like denunciations of U.S. policy. "He was someone who was very close to Fidel Castro and built his career working directly for Fidel Castro," said Phil Peters, a Cuba specialist at the Lexington Institute near Washington. · Perez Roque was replaced by his own deputy, Bruno Rodriguez, who once served as Cuba's ambassador to the United Nations. Officials announced no new post for Perez Roque. The surprise shake-up did not sit well with some Cubans, including Carmen Elizondo, 45, a ho11sewife with three children who said she heard the announcement on the news. "Ay! It left me feeling cold," Elizondo said. "I don't understand. Why make these chan~es, more than anything, Felipe? I had a lot of confidence in Felipe. I don't know any of those they put in place.' But retired worker Marta J.imenez, 65, was more optimistic. "People here are not used .to chan~e ," she said. "But I think thts was necessary and will be for the better. ·It's a restructuring of the country and I see that as good:" · . Peters said it was too early to say whether the changes could affect relations with the new administration of President Barack Obama, whose proposals for easing U.S. restnctions on Cuba have created hopes for the ~sumption of negotiations between the two countries on ending decades of hostilities. "There is nothing that indicates it's a reaction io anything in the United States," Peters said, noting that Raul Castro has long spoken of streamlining Cuba's govemrnent. The changes also seemed to cast further doubt on who could one day succeed Raul Castro. Cuba's current No. 2, Jose Ramon Machado Ventura, is a year older than the current president - and no heir apparent was clear from Mondafs list of new leaders. Vice President Carlos Lage, 57, apparently kept his job as vice president of the Council of State - a ruling body more powerful than the Cabinet. But he was replaced as Cabinet Secretary by Gen. Jose Amado Ricardo Guerra, who had been a top official in the military that Raul Castro ran for decades. Lage, a former Communist youth leader, was credited . with helping save Cuba's economy by designing mod- est economic reforms after the Soviet Union collapsed. Peters said tbere was no sigD Lage 's economic role was being reduced. Another former youth leader, Otto Rivero Torres, was removed as Cabinet vice president. Rivero Torres had already been dropped from the Council of State last year when Raul Castro became president. His replacement is hardliner Ramiro Valdez Menendez, who fought alongside Fidel, Raul and Ernesto "Cbe" Guevara in . the revolution · that toppled 'the dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista in 1959. ·Longtime Es:onomy Minister Jose Luis RMriguez was replaced by Internal Commerce Minister Marino PageA2 Tuesday, March 3, a.o og Murillo Jorge; Finance Minister Geoqina Barreiro Fajardo w~ ~by LiDa Pedraza Rodriguez of the Communist Party's secretariat; and Labor Minister Alfmfo Morales Cartaya was replaced · by Vice Minister Margarita Marlene Gonzalez Fernandez.

Ted Stricldand's administration has made it impossible to conduct a required audit. The announcement comes as state lawmakers are debating the two-year. $54 billion budget . proposal from Strickland. a Democrat whose financial calculations have come under scrutiny. Without the audit for· fis- . cal year 2008. it is unclear . whether the baseline figures used for the current year and in the upcoming budget plan are an accurate reflection of state finances, Auditor Mary Taylor said. She warned in a letter to the administration and legislative leaders that she may have to declare .the state unauditable. Taylor, a Republican, said the state's Ofttce of Budg~t and Management still had not provided her with the necessary statements to conduct the audit 245 days after the end of the fiscal year. · She said the budget office blames the delay on a new state computer system. called OAKS, that handles payroll. purchasing and other financial matters. Statements needed for the statewide· audit aren't expected until June, she said. No administration in the past five years has supplied the financial statements this late. she said. Most deliver them by Dec. 31. Taylor said her auditors have managed to pull in formation from the OAKS system when auditing indi vidual state agencies, however. and when completing her own office's financial audit. "The delay.we have experienced to date and the delay we have been told to expect appear to be unprecedented," she said . "It's most certainly troubling." Strickland spokeswoman Amanda Wurst said the governor is also concerned about the delay in the financial reports. He 's asked the budget office and other state agencies to pull the information together as quickly as possible, she said. Wurst downplayed any hint of sweeping fiscal implications that could be drawn from the delay. · "The auditor's understandably frustrated at continued complications arising due to the implementation of OAKS, but it does not raise any questions about the financial condition of our slate." she said. House Republican Leader Bill Batchelder, of Medinu. said he was alarmed that lawmakers had to learn of the trouble with the financial statements from Taylor rat)ler than the governor. "There's no question there's something amiss in this budget. and there may have been (something amiss) in the expenditures and income in the last budget," Batchelder said. "Obviously, nobody can comment on 'it without the numbers. but very clearly this is the kind Stite Auditor Mary Taylor of information that the governor's office should have provided." · The Strickland administration has adjusted the state budget three times because Local Stocks AEP (N'ISEI - a• Olllo v.lleV IIane Corp. tNAS. .
