HAVANA, Cuba - Fidel Castro is mocking President Obama for saying he's open to changing U.S. policy toward Cuba if there is change on the island first.
Castro writes sarcastically: "How kind! How intelligent!" He adds that such goodwill has not led Washington to end its five-decade-old economic embargo against the island.
Castro says many things will change in Cuba, but it will happen organically and in spite of pressure from Washington.
