How did Fidel Castro react to the fall of the Soviet Union?

Answer
A
He abandoned communism in favor of democracy.
B
He renewed his commitment to communism.

He decided to take steps to reevaluate communism and explore other options.

Explanation

After the Soviet Union collapsed in 1991, Cuba lost a major source of economic and military support and faced a severe crisis. Castro kept Cuba’s one-party communist system and reaffirmed his commitment to communism rather than adopting democracy or exploring other political systems. The correct choice is “He renewed his commitment to communism.”
