http://rt.com/news/russian-warships-visit-cuba-009/

A surface combatant squadron of the Russian Navy arrived in Cuba on Saturday for the first time in four years. The Cuban government announced the fleet was there for a “friendly visit.”

The unit consists of the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet, missile cruiser ‘Moscow’, the large anti-submarine ship ‘Vice Admiral Kulakov’ of the Northern Fleet and a number of supply and service ships. The squadron visited the port of Havana to replenish supplies.

The ships were greeted by an artillery salute, a naval band and a few hundred onlookers as they arrived in the Bay of Havana.

Russian diplomats and the foreign military attaché accredited in Havana paid a visit to the ‘Moscow’ missile cruiser. Tourists will also be able to visit the cruiser on Monday, Cuba's government announced.

Comment by John Carman on August 5, 2013 at 12:13pm: Здравствуйте, братья! Я надеюсь, что у вас есть хорошее посещение. Когда ты вернешься, чтобы спасти нас от мусульманского диктатора? Мы должны объединить свои силы, чтобы избавиться от этой мусульманской угрозой, поскольку это может привести к дополнительным войны или насилия. Угроза ислама влияет на каждого человека в мире сегодня, и мы должны работать вместе, чтобы избавиться от него. Большое спасибо.
