| 0:00.0 | All right, Alexander, let's discuss the situation with Cuba and the Russian tankers entering |
| 0:07.7 | Cuba being allowed to enter Cuba without the United States trying to seize them. |
| 0:13.0 | I believe it's one tanker that has entered, but I thought it was two. |
| 0:16.5 | I was under the impression that there were two tankers on their way, but we have the confirmation |
