Guant\u00e1namo.- The cargo of a third ship carrying aid sent by Venezuela, within the framework of ALBA-TCP, began to be unloaded this Thursday in Santiago de Cuba to assist in the recovery efforts following Hurricane Melissa. The resources include machinery, materials for the construction and repair of homes, bridges, and roads, as well as mattresses and other essential supplies.<\/p>\n
The ship arrived at the Guillerm\u00f3n Moncada Port in the province of Santiago de Cuba. There, local authorities are coordinating the unloading of supplies, which will be distributed immediately to the areas affected by the storm.<\/p>\n
These operations are running continuously for 22 hours a day, including night shifts, to expedite the delivery of aid. This effort is part of the Cuban government\u2019s response to the emergency.<\/p>\n
This solidarity aid adds to that of previous weeks, in which Venezuela and the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America \u2013 Peoples\u2019 Trade Treaty (ALBA-TCP) sent shipments with approximately 8,000 tons of aid destined for the affected families.<\/p>\n
With this initiative, the Governments of Cuba and Venezuela reiterate their commitment to mutual support in addressing common challenges, both climatic and geopolitical, and ensuring the well-being of their people.<\/p>\n
Hurricane Melissa struck the eastern region of the Caribbean nation on October 29, causing extensive material damage but no fatalities.<\/p>\n
This Thursday, Cuban President Miguel D\u00edaz-Canel Berm\u00fadez met with Domiciano Graterol, Venezuela\u2019s Vice Minister of Public Works, who is leading a group of Venezuelan specialists who arrived in eastern Cuba to assist in the assessment and reconstruction of damaged road infrastructure.<\/p>\n
From the \u201cMajor General Antonio Maceo Grajales Revolution Square\u201d Monumental Complex, D\u00edaz-Canel expressed that the presence of young people in Cuba, ready to provide technical and construction assistance, \u201cis related to the brotherhood and friendship between two peoples, between two revolutions.\u201d<\/p>\n
The First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba reflected that both countries are experiencing a common situation: \u201ca provocative U.S. military presence in the Caribbean, which threatens the Bolivarian Revolution and undermines the security of the region.\u201d<\/p>\n
President D\u00edaz-Canel pointed out that this fraternal hand \u201cis an example in the face of the types of relationships that are more common in today\u2019s world and are based on pressure, deception, and coercion.\u201d Photo: Estudios Revoluci\u00f3n
\nAmid these conditions, Venezuela, \u201cwith an altruistic gesture,\u201d is sending its citizens to work on the island. D\u00edaz-Canel also highlighted Cuba\u2019s cooperation with Venezuela \u201camid a situation of intensified blockade.\u201d<\/p>\n
Following the meeting, Vice Minister Graterol reported on the progress of the work, which includes a \u201cpoint-by-point\u201d review of roads, bridges, and more than one hundred thousand homes affected in the five eastern provinces.<\/p>\n
The Venezuelan official explained that the work is divided into three phases: the first, an assessment, has already been completed; the second, to connect the most important crossings between towns, has also been completed; and the third, focused on specific bridge construction projects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
