This Monday, during a tour of the Fructuoso Rodríguez Teaching Orthopedic Hospital, together with Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz, the president stated that the hospital workers “are demonstrating” that the innovation It is the way out of the crisis.
“Here it is shown that times may be complicated, but they can be overcome, and they are overcome when we work intelligently,” he said, referring to the hospital, which underwent repair, recovery and replacement of its technologies, a task in which that the FAR and its “business system” have been involved.
“Being there at the end of such a difficult year for Cuba“, wrote the first secretary of the Communist Party in a triumphalist tone.

According to the official media CubadebateEstudios oja, by Silvio Rodríguez, made donations for medical supplies and equipment. Elito Revé’s orchestra, for its part, paid for the epoxy resin needed for surgical areas.
With a weekly “contribution” made by MSMEs, the diet has improved “noticeably”: now there is chicken, minced meat, and rice.
“Many institutions are helping us, and we hope before the end of 2025 to have completed the capital repair, in order to have a hospital in the best conditions to care for our people,” argued Dr. Roberto Balmaseda Manent, director of Fructuoso.

“This is the path we all have to take; and you are an example of what one says when one goes to the provinces, that while some groups lament the lack of resources, others get to work. When there is different leadership, things advance, they do not stop, they even manage to be better in more difficult moments,” said the representative of the regime.
Innovate, beautify, resist have become recurring verbs in the ruler’s speech.
Two months ago, he called on Cubans to “beautify themselves,” in the midst of a fateful scenario of food shortages and blackouts caused by the mismanagement of his Government.
In a town in Matanzas, he asked the center workers to support the system electroenergetic with the honeydew harvest to generate electricity and asked to face the “difficulties.”
“The family of the workers with whom they are developing the self-consumption They will have more food. So all of that is enhanced and if in each place we do things well, we are inspired by those good examples,” he said.
In your opinionthe country’s problems “no one will solve”: “We have to solve them.” In this regard, he stated: “You have to be handsome, you have to fight in very difficult circumstances,” a phrase that he often repeats to ask Cubans for “resistance” when the crisis suffocates citizens.
