U.S. laying groundwork for Americans to reclaim property in Cuba

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - Federal officials planning for a post-Fidel Castro
Cuba are getting recommendations on how to recoup billions of dollars in
assets seized when the dictator imposed communist rule.

A group of Creighton University scholars commissioned by the U.S. Agency
for International Development based their advice on speculation of how
Cuba will move forward after Castro dies.

The 81-year-old Castro has not been out in public since announcing he
had undergone emergency intestinal surgery and was ceding power to his
younger brother, Raul.

U.S. officials are expected to use the study to help them decide how the
country should move forward with the island nation.
