00:00Cuba received 15,000 tons of rice as part of the Chinese government's Soy Diet E.A. to
00:05help mitigate the impact of the U.S. economic blockade.
00:08Human authorities received the first shipment of the 60,000 tons of rice that Beijing will
00:13send as a sign of solidarity and fraternity between the two nations.
00:17After the delivery, China assured that it will continue to provide assistance to Cuba
00:20in the face of the economic blockade that the United States has maintained for over
00:2460 years.
00:26For her part, Cuba's Minister of Domestic Trade Betsy Diaz explained that the
00:2915,000 tons of food will be distributed throughout the country, benefiting the entire Cuban population.
00:44These 15,000 tons, along with another 15,000 that will arrive in the coming months, will
00:49be shipped to the port of Havana.
00:51But given the complex situation, a decision has been made to distribute them there from
00:55throughout the country.
00:56For example, that ship over there must head east, carrying part of the shipment to the
01:01province, mainly Santiago and Guantanamo.
01:04Then we will organize another shipment to Olguin and the Camagüe provinces.
01:07This way, we will be able to reach the entire country.
01:10Therefore, it will take us some time to get the goods that are in Havana there via the most
01:15economical means we have today, which is shipping to all the provinces.
01:19It will allow us to provide 3 pounds to the entire Cuban population.
