Cuban president speaks on radio

A stronger Mr Castro appeared defiant on a recent video.
The ailing Cuban President, Fidel Castro, has spoken publicly for the first time since falling ill last July.
He was heard speaking live on the daily radio programme of his ally, the Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez.

It was a live call, and Chavez declared,

Fidel, tu me has convertido en una especie de emisario, de fuente, quién quiere saber de Fidel, yo le digo la verdad, (sobre) su recuperación.
"You have turned me into a kind of messenger, a source, about who wants to know about Fidel, I tell them the truth about his recovery".

Yeah, right.
