"As part of the international solidarity convoy 'Nuestra America', Puerto Rican activists arrived on Saturday at the Ramon Gonzalez Psychoeducational Center in Havana, carrying suitcases filled with medicine and medical supplies in a show of support for the Cuban people facing the US economic blockade. Footage shows medical staff celebrating the delivery of supplies, accompanied by the activists, who improvised chants and rhymes on site in an atmosphere of camaraderie. During the day, one of the Puerto Rican activists highlighted the political and humanitarian nature of the initiative and shared his stance on the sanctions affecting the island. "We are simply fulfilling our shared history of solidarity. Condemning the blockade. Making every effort to defend Cuba, to say that Cuba is not alone," said Edel Gonzalez. Medical staff at the hospital expressed their gratitude for the gesture of solidarity and explained some of the difficulties they are currently facing, particularly in relation to the supply of resources and energy. "To all our colleagues, thank you. At this moment, we have a need for certain medicines that are essential for the wellbeing of our patients due to the tightening restrictions on fuel entering our country in order to generate electricity," said Doctor Julio Cesar Rodriguez. The international convoy 'Nuestra America' brings together activists, social organisations and parliamentarians from more than 30 countries to highlight the humanitarian impact of US sanctions on the Caribbean island and collect material aid amid the ongoing energy and supply crisis."
