The Cuban government has not refused any aid

The international solidarity that Cuba is experiencing after the Matanzas incident is a harvest of the great example that the country has sown in service to fraternal peoples.

But in the context of the sincere offers, and despite the pain felt by families of the disappeared and the risk faced by those on the front lines trying to calm the fire, the campaigns to incite hatred and discredit continue.

Despite claims that the Cuban government has not refused international aid, the island’s enemies have insisted on giving the impression that the archipelago has not accepted US cooperation.

Cuban Deputy Foreign Minister Carlos Fernández de Cossío reiterated on Twitter that the United States government has sent its condolences through the State Department since 12 noon on Saturday, August 6.

Cuba thanked “directly and publicly” for the US gesture, the diplomat stressed, specifying that “technical advice was offered, which we also thanked and accepted”.

There is frequent communication between the two governments, he said, concluding: “There is too much speculation.”
