havana's gay hava na's gay pride havana's gay pride is normally much bigger than this, an annual celebrationrecognised. but this was an improvised event, with word spread by social media, after the cu ban word spread by social media, after the cuban government cancelled this yea r‘s the cuban government cancelled this year's march at the last minute. this particular gay pride march might not look very big, but what it represents is really quite significant in cuba. after being told they weren't allowed to hold the march, many have simply turned up the march, many have simply turned up anyway. the organisers said they had always wanted to hold their normal events, and only decided to put this one together instead as they were never given a coherent reason for the cancellation. translation: they obliged us to hold this event. we had every intention of participating in the government organised event, the usual gay pride march. but what we still don't understand is why the march was cancelled. we know the excuses they have given us are not the reasons, because they lack any real foundation. in e

if i were sitting in havana i would pay close attention. we've called cuba,. people should understand this is not the united states concerned with what is happening in venezuela. all over the hemisphere democratic governments support juan guaido and the opposition. stuart: joining us now, mary anastasia o'grady. "wall street journal" columnist. all right, mary, am i going too far if i suggest there's a domino effect here, venezuela goes, nicaragua, cuba after them? >> keep in mind venezuela provided subsidies allowed cuba to survive after the soviet union fell. they were getting subsidies from the soviet union. they went through a very tough period in the late '90s with chavez. that allowed them to cubans to hang on. i think something similar. danny ortega also benefit ad lot from oil subsidies coming from venezuela. so that's over. that's a very good thing whether, you know maduro falls or not, these countries are very poor now. i think that the real key component here is russia. i mean russia has been really the weapons supplier and the, sort of the big guy

>> he was headed for havana. >> maduro appeared on tv denying pompeo's claim.uld be disturbing to you. we are live in caracas. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, dave. yes, indeed, another crucial day ahead here for not only the international community and the press corps covering the story, but indeed, the people of venezuela who are asking, still, themselves what happens next. what is the next move? was yesterday a genuine attempted coup or a move to try to topple maduro? did he fail outright or did he can be expected more action will happen? we'll be monitoring. today, may 1st, international workers day, a crucial day here in venezuela with hundreds of thousands of anti-maduro protesters and pro-maduro supporters scheduled to take on to the street to show their support for the two leaders. the battle is not over yet. let me finish with a note on the international community because we said, mike pompeo was saying yesterday that the u.s. is standing firmly behind juan guaido's back and behind yesterday's tending to a military uprising. at the same time,

was there -- is there a game plan, was there a game plan on april 30th for maduro to go to havana intoom secretary of state pompeo and repeated by the national security adviser john bolton. what i do know was that there was a failed coup, that the population did not support the alleged coup, they came out and supported the government, and that the military and the government remain fully loyal to the government of nicolas maduro. >> of course the u.s. and 50 other nations say it was not a coup, it is an uprising that guaido is the legitimate leader because maduro's election was not legitimate, and that he has been endorsed by 54 countries including most in the region, everyone other than china, turkey, russia, and others outside of -- >> of the almost 200 countries of the u.n., around 50, 54 of the almost 200 have recognized guaido. i don't think all of them said that it was not a coup. i heard the u.s. government say that and a few other governments in the region, not beyond that. >> in terms of the threat from the president, he's threatening total embargo on cuba. first of all, what

week, keylast decisions about venezuela's future are as much made in havana as they are in caracas. venezuela is not merely a cuban client. the people of venezuela are essentially cuba's hostage. cuba has robbed a venezuela of more than freedom. it has stripped her of wealth. some estimates claim cuba has extracted more than $35 billion in oil since 2005. the struggling people of venezuela are just the victims of a dictatorship. the people of venezuela are the victim of two dictatorships. this is a company nicolas maduro keeps. never fully will realize our potential as a hemisphere of freedom until venezuela is able to cast off cuba's control and once again take its rightful place as a free and independent nation. [applause] but for allence: the suffering across the country , it is inspiring to see the venezuelan people rising up. said not longrump ago, the fight for freedom in venezuela has just begun. four short months ago, nicolas maduro was sworn into a second term, stolen in a sham election. the national assembly, the only ,uly elected body in venezuela exercised its power over

nobody is going to give them a plane ride to moscow or havana. yeah, we shouldn't be like i said pollyannaish about this and think it is going to turn into the land of milk and honey. but again venezuela is a resource rich country, relatively well educated population. they don't have internal ethnic strife and everything else. you have a region that's supportive. you have a lot of constructive pluses here. compare that to syria. i mean, you know, syria's probably equally on its back, but nobody thinks syria is going to get rebuilt in a new york minute. the challenges in venezuela are nothing like what we see in syria and other countries. so, you know, the odds are with them, i think. >> jim, can you quantify that with any sort of a time line? i know that you're talking about quickly, but what does that mean in terms of when they might see some level of stability and when we can potentially see some actual economic growth out of the region, should things go the way we hope they go? >> well, i think it would be less than a year from the conditions

the queue for fresh chicken stretches outside the supermarket in havana poultry and many other items are often in short supply and shoppers have just heard there's been a delivery. they'll have to wait several hours to be served not only that there's now a limit on how much they can buy. for you when they sell items such as chickens sometimes there's not much available so we've been told to limit the amount customers can buy . cuber imports up to 70 percent of its food and is struggling to pay the bills because the government's receiving less aid from venezuela which has its own crisis to deal with cuba's communist leaders are starting rationing meat eggs rice beans and other essential such as so. i thought i wanted to say that people i think rationing is the only way to stop hoarding food people need to buy less so that everyone can get and it'll bit like the government says the main reason for the future is because of u.s. sanctions donald trump has reversed the thaw in relations when barack obama was president is. that we depend on imports that come from the united states and that
