WORLD: With communism fading in the
East bloc, Castro faces his toughest
challenge as he clings to his socialist vision
Cuba's growing alienation from the rest of the communist world
threatens an end to the aid and favorable trade arrangements
that have kept its lame economy hobbling along.
Across Asia,
Africa and the Middle East, other regimes also confront a money
squeeze as Soviet funds dry up.
With his brazen assertiveness
and failure to endorse current borders, West Germany's
Chancellor is creating unease over unification.
