cuba has com pletely ways it still is.otten on top of the outbreak in many parts of the island. it is just havana that has seen quite an uptake but that up tech does include the highest number of deaths registered on a single day, just 93 cases and obviously 93 cases would be seen as a good victory for some of the countries around the world but here it has created a situation where they have started clamping down in the capital again. as it clear why the surge has happened? because cuba has such an excellent reputation generally on healthcare, doesn't it? it does. a lot of the accusation is that people have been gathering. things began to be relaxed in the main city, then gatherings for either religious reasons or for parties and so on started happening. and to use a very typical word of the cuban government there was a lot of indiscipline in the city. people started to get relaxed and i think that is human nature to an extent however the consequences have absolutely been seen, we're talking about 88 deaths in total in cub

cuba is 90 miles away. but for the last 20 years, i've actually been working on health care-related issues in cuba. you know, the cubans train u.s. doctors and i've been recruiting those doctors to work in the inner city because they come in tuition-free. the cubans also have two medicines, one for diabetes, of which my mother died, for lung cancer, which my father died for, and i would like to have those drugs tested in the united states. now, that doesn't excuse the fact that i know the castro regime has been a brutal regime to its people. i know that there is not freedom of press, freedom of association, and interestingly, when i went in my late teens and early 20s, you know, one of the things that -- one of the reasons was to build relations with the americans that were there because there were over 100 young people that were there, and all of us worked on different issues. well, what's interesting is that we had the ability to come home and protest against our own government, but the cuban people most

this is not just venezuela, but iran, china, russia, cuba. we were able to bring together over 50 countries. there was the funding facility for stablization so with the united states and 27 other countries contributed 1.2 billion dollars. that worked. this helped centralize stablization funding and all of our efforts in iraq. to date, we have more than 4,300 stablization programs in iraq that are planned, underway or completed. one of the lessons learned and one of the ways that we can look at venezuela is through this prism. again, we also have similar objectives. we want the venezuelan people to lead which is our approach to venezuela and stablization and the final point is about working with our european partners in particular. now, again, to better coordinate we work really closely, my bureau with our counterpart in seven or eight other countries that have stablization countries, australia, denmark, germany, netherlands and united kingdom. and this group, is committed to international cooperation. we've linked these stablization units to

the man who oversaw the restoration of cuba's famous famous all you say be a leo has died at the age of $77.00 is known for building parts of the city for terrorists and refurbishing the hotel where american journalist and novelist honest hemingway would write many of his best books they are haunting reports. in this caribbean country his death was announced as breaking news you saved. oversaw the restoration of cuba's famous old havana area of the capital and he was adored for it or and in 1942 into a poor family from an early age he was captivated by the history of his city one of his 1st projects was to save a wooden road from being covered in asphalt he befriended then president fidel castro and became a member of cuba's parliament he persuaded castro to focus on restoring the capital after years of disrepair. he worked to designate parts of the city as a unesco world heritage site and began rebuilding. i'm happy to not be celebrating the $500.00 on of the city of falling off of honor but the $450.00 remain more opportunities so that during the next 5 years we can restore more of

in fact, one time when i went to visit cuba, i visited the u.s.itical prisoner actually with whatever panelists that's going to be on a little later, donna brazile. we went and visited alan gross. the last eight years i've served on the board of national endowment for democracy, which funds democratic activists on the island of cuba. so my perspective has definitely developed over time. i am interested in two products that the cubans have. one to address diabetes, the other to address lung cancer, and i'm hoping that both of those products will be tested and marketed in the united states if they are safe. >> chris: but i have just a minute left, congresswoman and you make it sound as if this was just -- when you were young and irresponsible, you were young and irresponsible. you put out that message about castro's death six years -- four years ago in 2016. shouldn't you have known by then but castro's death was not a great loss to the cuban people? >> congresswoman bass: i absolutely would have not put that statement out and i can tell you for tal

cuba treats venezuela as a colony, shipping food, medicine, diesel, and gasoline from venezuela to cuba, even as the venezuelan people suffer short ands of all of them. -- shortages of all of them. cuban security personnel surround maduro. they are embedded in the military. china helps the regime move cyber operations. now we are seeing a rekindling of the relationship of the world's worst state sponsor of terrorism, the islamic republic of iran. maduro's recent hijacking of the electoral and major democratic political parties foreshadow how the regime plans to take control of the national assembly through fraudulent elections in december. on sunday, 27 democratic political parties in venezuela joined in unity to say they refuse to participate in that farce. i'm sure democracies around the world will also refuse to recognize such a fraud. we look forward to the day when free and fair elections are held. a new democratically elected government is in place. u.s. sanction can then be lifted. we look forward to restoring once close venezuela-u.s. relations to help the refugees return to the

what was it about castro and cuba that you found so appealing at that a time? do you now regret your involvement and considerable time spent in a communist dictatorshipsome. >> so let me tell you that, first of all, or when i went to cuba over 40 years ago when i was in my teens and early 20, i went to help the cuban people. we were building houses. the orr reason why i we believe the was to meet and work with americans from around the country that were involved in a lot of different social issues. i think that over the past 20 years my involvement in cuba has centered on health care and promoting democracy. so do i know an awful hot more now? do i understand that the castro reregime does not have the same freedoms as we do in the united states, it's a brutal regime, they don't are freedom of press, freedom of protest which was kind of ironic because when i went in my youth the majority of us that were were anti-war prott police abuse and understood then and now that the cuban people did not have the same freedoms. i also believe the best way to deal with chang

turkey isn't doing in venezuela with the russians and cuba is doing.ut they are lending themselves to this kind of corrupt activity and also gold. we see a lot of gold and we saw earlier this year some of the smart companies develop in mexico. but with the help of the mexican government we are shutting them down. we just haven't had that kind of help from the turkish government. >> that's why i asked if we don't think there's more we should be thinking about in terms of sanctioning turkey. >> we keep trying. we keep going after companies as we find them. >> can you give us a list that we've gone after and what success they have had? >> i would be happy to supply it to you, some of it for the investigations that are ongoing. we wouldn't be able to do that in a classified form we would be able to. >> if perhaps that could be something shared with the whole committee. >> if they could provide the list, what you can do this and classified for the record, that would be much appreciated. senator shaheen's points are well taken. >> during the last hearing tha
