Hungary is sending 30,000 antigen test kits and 120 pieces of medical equipment to Cuba in the coming days, the foreign minister said on Saturday.
Péter Szijjártó said in a video posted on Facebook that coronavirus still posed a great challenge in Cuba.
Hungary, he noted, has been helping out in many cases, most recently sending test kits to Moldova, North Macedonia, Montenegro, Somalia and the Philippines.
Hungary’s government is also sending anesthesia machines, patient monitors, ventilators, infusion pumps as well as docking stations for infusion pumps to Cuba, Szijjártó said.
Thanks to the forward-looking, successful purchases of recent years, he said,
Hungary is able to help countries that are in a difficult situation,
“and we are doing what we can to help”.

The population of Cuba is just under 11.4 million. Hungary is sending 30,000 unneeded (and no doubt soon out of date) test kits (which are as cheap was chips, less than 1 euro each wholesale price). How generous. Better than nothing, that is true, but hardly something to boast about.
While I realize that the Cuban people are in need of help we can’t forget that the Cuban Communist regime was not imposed on them by outside military force as was done in Eastern Europe. Cuba is a self made disaster and should be the last to get outside assistance.
