WASHINGTON (AFP) — Cuban leader Fidel Castro has nearly recovered from intestinal surgery, the third-most powerful man in Cuba said in an interview with CNN, without mentioning whether Castro would return to the presidency.
"He practically -- practically we can say that he has fully recovered," said National Assembly president Ricardo Alarcon.
"He still has to continue a very strict regime of exercising, rehabilitation," said Alarcon.
Castro, now 80, has been recovering from intestinal surgery since handing power over to his younger brother, Raul Castro, on July 31.
Castro has not been seen in public since, but has in recent weeks written a flurry of article for publication in official newspapers.
