The military department reportedly sent two An-124 Ruslan transport aircraft to Cuba. Cargo - humanitarian aid with a total weight of over 88 tons. The planes are carrying food and protective equipment, including over 1 million medical masks for the population. The planes took off from the Chkalovsky airfield.



As the Ministry of Defense emphasized, humanitarian aid was sent to Cuba on behalf of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Two An-124 Ruslan aircraft of the Russian Defense Ministry took off from the Chkalovsky airfield near Moscow to their destination. Military transport aircraft aviation will deliver food, personal protective equipment and more than 1 million medical masks to Cuba. More than 88 tons in total

- said in a statement.

As previously reported, a series of anti-government protests took place in Cuba, during which protesters opposed restrictive measures to combat the coronavirus and demanded a vaccine against COVID-19. According to the Cuban authorities, the protests were artificially fueled by the United States. As a result, the situation in the country has stabilized.

Meanwhile, the Pentagon did not rule out that, if necessary, the Russian Ministry of Defense could provide assistance to Cuba without sending aircraft across the Atlantic. According to American experts, the Russians have a jump base in Venezuela for this.

        Their vaccine is called Abdala. Cuba has refused vaccines from Russia or China, and also does not participate in the COVAX program, which helps low-income countries receive vaccine drugs and relies only on itself.
        This is a protein vaccine. If it turns out to be really that effective, Cuba will have to look for where to release it. Own capacities are enough only for several thousand laboratory doses.

          Privalov-Russia, I am sure, in an amicable way, we need to return there, help the Cubans as much as we can, the benefit will be mutual, we will develop our tourism there, and industrial production, and again we will help them with weapons.

            Well, so we started to do this, judging by the dispatch of these transport workers. I think that we will definitely return there, the whole question is how sincerely the Cuban authorities are interested in this.

        I already once wrote that after the attack of the Axis countries on the USSR, a campaign of aid to the USSR was launched in Cuba.
        On July 24, 1941, a 40-strong demonstration in support of the USSR was held in Havana and a conference was held that adopted a resolution on sending 40 bags of sugar, 1 million cigars and other possible assistance to the USSR. I have not seen photos and chronicles of those times with the soldiers of the Red Army smoking cigars, but I think that they were crushed into dust, they were perfectly sewn into goat legs and into other newspaper twists.
        Later, more than 100 committees of assistance to the USSR were created in the country. In June 1942, the democratic, workers' and trade union organizations of Cuba collected and sent 110 tons of goods (coffee, tobacco, cigarettes, soap, leather for boots, etc.) to the USSR.

        Of course, Cuban volunteers fought for us in Angola and Ethiopia, including the pilots. They showed themselves well.

        During the war in Cuba, there was a pro-American orientation and, in line with this, Cuba participated in providing assistance to the USSR.
        From 1990 to 2011 in Cuba, children were accepted for the treatment and rehabilitation of children affected by the Chernobyl accident, but, as far as I understand, after 1991, if Russia took part in the program, it was limited.

      Once a Cuban woman told me that after the collapse of the USSR, Cuba was surprised to realize that they practically had no industry at all. All were transported from the USSR. There weren't even factories to produce sandals and socks. Not much has changed there in 30 years. They built hotels and began to let tourists from Europe and Canada there. Tipping is extorting, of course not as harsh as, say, in Cancun, Mexico, but also impudent. Until you put the cookies on the table in the dining room, they won't even come to you for lunch to pour juice for children. Amers are still not allowed in, although 3-4 years ago there was a chance to fix it. Because of Covid, the flow of tourists abruptly faded, and as a result, riots in the streets. It is clear that the United States has nothing to do with it. It's just that the population's income level has dropped sharply, and you have to eat something. That's all

        Once a Cuban woman told me that after the collapse of the USSR, Cuba was surprised to realize that they practically had no industry at all.

        She is unaware that excellent Cuban cigars, rum, sugar and very strong cigarettes made from cigar tobacco scraps were sold in the USSR. Moreover, the prices for cigars were simply ridiculous, and some of our experts specially took them as gifts on business trips abroad. The diplomatic corps also did not disdain to buy Cuban cigars in the USSR in the 60s and 70s. We also brought some of the minerals from Cuba, so they had an industry.

          Not everything is measured by money. Debt can be repaid in other ways, as is done all over the world. Rarely does anyone fully repay a debt with money, there was one such - Ceausescu, he gave it completely, and where is he and his country?

            Yes, I don't care much about Romania and the fate of Ceausescu (who showed his teeth to the USSR), the USSR gave the loan, that is, you and I (as its successors), respectively, if you write off a receivable, then only hopeless for collection (nothing is clear from Somalia, Yemen, Ethiopia you will not seek) ... and not one that can be collected or sold to others ...

              I wrote that in 2000, one of our president simply closed our base in Lourdes, where they recently changed all the equipment to new ones. She (Cuba) would be glad, but for some reason they don't take it. And Ceausescu is here for an example (regardless of his attitude towards the USSR) - he paid everything and was shot. Paying off debts is not an end in itself.

          In contrast, there were a lot of things, but in 2000, one of our president really wanted to please the states and began to save not on the maintenance of the oligarchs, but on our foreign bases - in Cam Ranh and Lourdes.
