Cuba’s National Assembly announced on Thursday that 57 year old then-incumbent First Vice President of Cuba Miguel Diaz-Canel, would succeed Raul Castro, 86, as President of the Council of State and President of the Council of Ministers. The National Assembly voted 603 to 1 in favour of Diaz-Canel. Diaz-Canel is a Politburo member of the Communist Party of Cuba. Despite the change in leadership, Castro will still retain his most powerful position as First Secretary of the Communist Party that exercise a large measure of control on the Cuban government.
