CARACAS, February 22. /TASS/. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Thursday expressed gratitude to his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin and the Pan American Health Organization for providing the South American country with medicines.

"I’m very thankful to the Pan American Health Organization and Russian President Vladimir Putin for their resolve in delivering medicines," Maduro said in a speech broadcast by Periscope app.

Earlier, Russia handed over to Venezuela a cargo with medicines and medical equipment in the framework of the World Health Organization. The ceremony was held at the Caracas International Airport and attended by Russian Ambassador to Venezuela Vladimir Zaemsky and high-ranking officials from the republic’s Health Ministry.

What’s Cuba sending?

Anything from North Korea?

A Black Market is still a market--there has to be something left to be exchanged for the goods, and I thought Venezuela was thoroughly stripped and picked over. Well, I suppose there's always sex to be sold.

Or, the goods can be sold to international criminals for resale. I wonder how it will really go.

Clue for Maduro: people who die from starvation don’t need medicine any more.

Medicine?....... what medicine?

Russia has no ibuprofen or acetominiprin or aspirin for themselves much less to give away

What is Bernie Sanders,Sean Penn, Danny Glover, AOC and all of the other Socialist sycophants sending? Are we going to see telethons,rallies and hand ringing for that Venezuelan Mad Dog?
