WASHINGTON — Any goodwill Raul Castro enjoyed as Cuba’s new leader has dissipated, according to a new poll, which found more than four out of five of those surveyed in Cuba were unhappy with the direction of the country.
The survey, conducted by the International Republican Institute — which works closely with the U.S. State Department — also found one in five Cubans cited food scarcity as their biggest worry and that 82 percent of those surveyed said life in Cuba was going “so-so, badly or very badly.” That was up slightly from 80 percent last November, the last time the study was conducted.
