A Russian‑flagged oil tanker, the Anatoly Kolodkin, arrived in Matanzas, Cuba, carrying roughly 730,000 barrels of crude. The arrival followed President Donald Trump’s decision to lift the U.S. fuel blockade amid Cuba’s deepening energy crisis.

    1. We'll be there to help our great Cuban Americans out who were thrown out of Cuba, in many cases, their family members were mutilated and killed by (Fidel) Castro...Cuba's going to be next.
    2. Cuba is a mess, it's a failing country and they're going to be next…Within a short period of time, it's going to fail and we will be there to help it out.
    3. I'd prefer letting it in, whether it's Russia or anybody else, because the people need heat and cooling and all of the other things that you need.
    4. Cuba's finished, they have a bad regime, they have very bad and corrupt leadership, and whether or not they get a boat of oil, it's not going to matter.
    5. If he wants to do that and if other countries want to do it, it doesn't bother me much.
    6. We have a tanker out there. We don't mind having somebody having a boatload. Because they have to survive.

    1. Our gratitude to the Government and People of Russia for all the support we are receiving. A valuable shipment that arrives amidst the complex energy situation we are facing.

    1. Russia considers it its duty not to stand aside, but to provide the necessary assistance to our Cuban friends.
    2. As for the American side, I can only confirm that this issue was indeed raised in advance during contacts with our American counterparts.

    Carlos Fernandez De Cossio
    Cuban Foreign Ministry
    1. It's a sign of the brutal siege Cubans endure with heroism and stoicism. It's a demonstration of the criminal cruelty of imperialism against a nation that refuses to be dominated.
    2. The arrival of an oil tanker to a country has likely never generated so much news as the Russian one to Cuba.
