Two military planes carrying 88 tonnes of aid - including food and personal protective equipment, including more than one million medical masks, departed from an airfield near Moscow on Saturday, the defence ministry said in a statement.“On the instructions of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, military transport aircraft are delivering humanitarian aid to the Republic of Cuba,” the ministry said.
The Cuban government has blamed the protests mostly on what it calls U.S.-financed “counter-revolutionaries” exploiting economic hardship caused by decades-old U.S. embargo. Government critics say the island’s economic woes are caused largely by the inefficiencies of the state-run system. Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador has blamed the U.S. embargo for fomenting the unrest in Cuba.
How about you who are spending winters in Cuba for little money, asking your govt to help. Those millions of good ppl are in big trouble because the biggest terrorist has blockaded them for 7 decades. Russians have heart, they are Slavic ppl. Anglos do not.
Do too CHINA?
Why aren’t they sending the most vital COVID fighting supplies… vaccines? Possibly because the Sputnik vaccine is one of the worst-performing vaccines in use?
And so what? Russia doesn’t need anyone’s permission to do anything! Stop meddling in other nations affairs! Stay out mind your business!
But why if Cuba has the best doctors and vaccines right?
