La Habana, una capital fantasma
Alrededor de La bodeguita del medio hace un tiempo atrás no se podía caminar. Sin embargo, actualmente es un sitio con poca afluencia de público. Los cubanos de a pie no tienen acceso a los lugares de diversión debido a los altos precios en comparación con el salario promedio.

00:00My son Barón, who is a 6-year-old boy from El Derrumbe,
00:05is terrified that he doesn't want to come up here because he's scared.
00:12Because this doesn't have any conditions for a child.
00:16When a child is a minor.
00:18My daughter hasn't known what breastfeeding is for months.
00:25Greetings to all who are watching us on ADN Cuba.
00:29Many blessings.
00:31Today I am here with the mother of the child who was a victim of the earthquake
00:37that occurred in Malecón, between Prado and Genio,
00:43where she was a victim of the terrible earthquake.
00:48Today I am here with her mother, who has several problems.
00:58She has two children, as you can see.
01:01She has a 10-month-old baby and a 6-year-old child.
01:07What is your problem right now?
01:13What do you need?
01:16What do you need right now?
01:21Well, my biggest problem right now is the child,
01:25who is still having health problems due to the earthquake.
01:32And I don't have food to give either of them,
01:35because I am without a job, without a house, without a home.
01:39I am on the street and I need support.
01:43And I am going to the doctor because he is having problems with his foot,
01:48which is still itching.
01:52And that's what I need, that they support me,
01:55all the people who watch the video,
01:58to see if I can go a little further.
02:03Here, in the images that you are showing me,
02:06is where I live with two children, one of 10 months,
02:09and my son, Aaron, who was the child of the quake, who is 6 years old.
02:15Right now, he is afraid that he doesn't want to go up here,
02:20because he is afraid, like I am,
02:23because I am afraid for my life, for my children.
02:27And since I was 4 years old, I have lived here in Havana.
02:30I did all my studies here.
02:34I don't have the attention of any institute, of any organ.
02:41Yes, of social workers, of the program Educate Your Child.
02:44I have no support from anyone of that kind.
02:48And I ask you to help me.
02:54Don't worry, the world is watching,
02:57and there are many humanitarian people in exile.
03:00Everyone who watches this video, I am sure,
03:03will support you in everything they can,
03:06and will help you in everything that is within our reach,
03:10on behalf of the exiles,
03:13and the entire Cuban-American community,
03:16who, day by day, work tirelessly,
03:19and support the struggle for the freedom of Cuba.
03:31Actually, this doesn't have conditions for me,
03:34when I am a child, a minor.
03:37This is a danger, you can't live like this anywhere in the world.
03:40How do you manage to buy food for the child, for the milk?
03:45Well, my daughter hasn't known what milk is for more or less months,
03:50because I have a lot of groceries here,
03:53I have nothing, I haven't been able to buy a bookshelf,
03:56or even a piece of paper.
03:58I have to buy everything from abroad.
04:00When I can, when I have money,
04:02my friends help me,
04:05that's the only way I can buy food.
04:09Otherwise,
04:12the neighbor who gives me a plate of food,
04:15and that's how I've been living so far.
04:17Solitary, yes.
04:20Because I don't have a relationship, I don't have anything, I'm alone.
04:23For all the followers of ADN Cuba,
04:25you can see here,
04:27their phone number is going to be left,
04:29for everyone who can contact the young woman,
04:32and support her, whatever they can.
04:35Nothing, please contact her, please write to her,
04:39that she needs it urgently.
04:41She even has to take her child to the hospital,
04:44because she still has problems,
04:46and economically she doesn't have money
04:49to pay for a machine, a transport,
04:51which at the moment is very, very expensive in the country.
04:55Reporting for ADN Cuba,
04:57Pedro Quiala, Julio César Góngora.
