00:00Cuba's National Assembly addressed the economic plan and budget for 2025 as the main challenge
00:06to be faced in the economic and social model of socialist development.
00:10During the first day of debates of the fourth session of Parliament, Prime Minister Manuel
00:15Marrero explained that although the plan presented in 2023 shows results, there has not been
00:22enough progress.
00:23The minister pointed out the blockade, coercive measures and financial pressures as the main
00:28challenge to be faced in the updating and improvement of the economic model.
00:33Marrero indicated that the government's policy of advancing the de-dollarization of the economy
00:39is ratified, despite the partial dollarization schemes of some exporting sectors.
00:53We are witnesses of the political will and the determination of the leadership of the
00:57revolution, of our understanding, of the people to transform and solve this situation.
01:02Measures are taken, they are analyzed weekly.
01:05Many of them are being analyzed every day.
01:08Every day, different solutions are being analyzed in order to alleviate the situation of our
01:13people.
01:18Cuban Congressman Rolando Gonzalez Patricio demanded the lifting of unilateral sanctions
01:23by the United States and the removal of Cuba from the list of state sponsors of terrorism.
01:30The demand of this National Assembly of People's Power, in representation of the people of
01:34Cuba, is that the United States blockade be lifted once and for all, that the government
01:38of that country cease its persecution of our economic and financial relations with the
01:42rest of the world, that it eliminate the millions of dollars in funds from the federal budget
01:47to subvert the internal order and encourage disinformation operations against Cuba, and
01:51that the country be removed from the arbitrary and unilateral list of state sponsors of terrorism.
