Russia will help Cuba modernise its textile industry, according to Russia's deputy minister of industry and trade Gueorgui Kalamanov, who said Cuba has made proposals for the modernisation of a series of textile factories and the exact amount to be spent needs to be finalised. The minister was in Havanna recently for talks in that regard.
Most machinery will be of Russian origin and these projects are expected to be implemented with the support of the Russian Export Centre, a Cuban website cited Kalamanov as indicating. (DS)
