1.- Introduction There have been two major problems in January: the return -with greater force- of the Chinese virus and the Rearrangement Task. In the case of the Chinese virus, the last day of the period ended with 906 positive samples, which implies a significant rebound, since until April 15, 2020, a little more than a month after the pandemic began, there was an accumulated number of 862 positive cases, down from a single day in this rebound. The problems with the medical supplies, the shortage of PCR and the delay in the results, by laboratories that were overwhelmed, have been definitive for this month, in which the inefficiency of the Public Health system has been noticeable. To which must be added the lack of ambulances, which has caused public transport buses to be used to move patients infested with the disease; which brought as a result –the one that has been disclosed so far- the death of a 5-year-old girl from , who could not be rushed to the provincial pediatric hospital because the ambulance appeared 5 hours after being requested and was not properly equipped with the girl dying two hours later. The number of infected children is also alarming; as well as the way in which the number of deceased has grown. In fact, January has been the deadliest month of the pandemic and Luis Antonio Torres Iribar, first secretary of the Communist Party of in the capital, has said that: " could get worse." Despite the fact that extreme measures have been taken in some provinces, the outbreak has not been contained. In particular, the two aspects that most affect the agglomeration of people are: transportation, which is very scarce; and the queues, due to the lack of food and hygiene products. Without knowing who is responsible for the crazy ideas of the economy --although the public face is Marino Murillo-- the "Rearrangement Task" is started at the worst moment of the pandemic, and only 20 days later "President" Díaz-Canel said that the rearrangement had to be arranged, in the first place because of the number of complaints that have been received from the population due to the high prices, given the empty pockets of ordinary . The arrangement is nowhere to be seen in the month that has elapsed, but society is very much annoyed after enduring an 11% drop in Gross Domestic Product during 2020. It is as if the regime was saying to the people: "Fend for yourselves." In summary, it can be said that the dictatorship continues living in a fictional world that does not take into account the needs of the people and thus violates their elemental rights. If there was a November 27, now there will be a January 27 as well, in which the figure of the Minister of Culture, Alpidio Alonso Grau, has stood out when hitting an independent journalist to take away his cell phone, with which the Minister was being filmed. The protests of the San Isidro Movement and the group of November 27 continue, now for the Minister of Culture to resign, pointing to the National Capitol as the meeting place.

Inflation continues to be rampant, with unstoppable prices, despite the threats of fines and confiscations made by the regime and that it will probably implement, shortly, through legal channels. On the other hand, the religious issue has been on the social scene for several months now and it remains: a group of priests and practicing Catholics from Cuba and other countries wrote the document: "I have seen the affliction of my people" published on January 24. Immediately, Razones de Cuba answered it on January 28 with an article entitled "Counterrevolution hidden behind the cross and the cassock." It goes without saying that the response was more of the same: that the document was signed by counterrevolutionaries financed by intelligence agencies of the United States of America. It also states that for months, several Cuban priests have been inciting their parishioners from the pulpits of their churches, with broad media support from Miami. Videos showing police abuse are increasing on the networks, which are then forwarded and all become viral. But in particular a video has circulated with statements by Col. Ramón Valle Luna, in which he can be seen boasting that he had killed 3 and that Fidel and Raúl had said: "Don't even touch him." This is irrefutable proof of the violation of , where all power is concentrated in the figure of the First Secretary of the Communist Party of the day.

2.- Political Prisoners Hanoi Morán Dime is not in the list of political prisoners. He was arrested on the street on January 31, around 1 a.m. along with Darío Pérez Diéguez, at Monte and Aponte streets, in the Jesús María neighborhood, in . They were transferred to the police Unit at Cuba and Chacón streets and Darío was released at 5:30, with a Warning, but Hanoi was taken at noon to the Bivouac, to be processed as a repeat offender, since he had been given a fine for not using his face mask properly. This note is only informative because we will respect the always serious decision of Cuban Prisoners Defenders to place him or not on the list of political prisoners. Since it all happened on the last day of the month for sure they did not have time to process him. Rapper Denís Solís González, from the San Isidro Movement, remains imprisoned after an arbitrary process in a maximum security prison, despite being a first-time inmate and his crime not being classified as serious. The young Luis Robles Elizástegui, who was arrested in December 2020 while demonstrating on the Boulevard San Rafael, is being accused of Alteration of Public Order and Contempt, in addition to Acts against State Security. He is awaiting trial at the Combinado del Este. Meraida Martín Calderín, who cooperates with the Cuban Center for Human Rights from , has had her two sons, twins aged 25, political prisoners, for 1 year and 8 months. Bianko and Diango Vargas Martín, are away from their home province (Santiago de Cuba) serving sentences in prisons, Kilo 5 in Pinar del Río and Agüica in Matanzas. On Sunday, January 31, former political prisoner Dayamy Lay Sangrony died of Multiple Pneumonia and Hepatitis C she acquired in prison. She served 7 years of deprivation of liberty. Below are the movements of political prisoners during the month of January: Released under precautionary bail measure: Sulaine Videaux Almenares and Evert Oscar Matos Leyva; Pastor Karel Parra Rosabal had his oral trial hearing suspended. Released under conditional freedom: Jesús Alfredo Pérez Rivas, Josiel Guía Piloto and Luis Andrés Domínguez Sardiñas. Released after serving full sentence Humberto Paz Gutiérrez. Transferred: Luis Robles Elizástegui, to Combinado del Este de La Habana; Yulisneis Richard Viel, to Forced Labor Camp El Manguito, Santiago de Cuba; Yulio Ferrer Bravo, to Forced Labor Camp San José de Las Lajas, Mayabeque; Kesser Rodríguez Rodríguez, to Forced Labor Camp Paraíso Cuba-Jamaica, Güines, Mayabeque.

Faced with the constant degrading statements of the TV anchor Humberto López Suárez, Lic Julio Alfredo Ferrer Tamayo, a lawyer collaborating with the Cuban Center for Human Rights, has made the following recommendations:

48

In the most recent broadcasts of the Cuban Television Newscast, in its prime time, we have witnessed how the lawyer and anchor Humberto López Suárez, in the section under his charge, has been implementing the strategy of discrediting prominent independent civil society activists through the media. To that end, he has attacked dissidents, journalists and independent artists, such as Yoani Sánchez, Berta Soler, Tania Bruguera, Iliana Hernández, just to mention a few cases in which women are spoken against. He has described them, without any factual support, and I quote his words: “mercenaries and employees of the Government of the United States of America, carrying out the objective of said government to overthrow the socialist system chosen by the majority of the inhabitants of the Island ... ”. In order to publicly disqualify the independent civil society, he has irresponsibly disregarded the truth, divulging totally false facts or events about the activists, aware of his deception with the preconceived purpose of discrediting them. Humberto López Suárez, is a native of Colón, , Cuban citizen, son of Humberto and Liem, 35 years old, with permanent identity number 85100909864, with legal address at Camilo Cienfuegos street number 7, Los Arabos, Matanzas. He graduated in Law and is a regular anchor of the program "Hacemos Cuba" of the Cuban Television Information System. with this procedure, he becomes guilty of the crime of Slander foreseen and sanctioned in the Penal Code, article 319.1, which I quote verbatim: "The one who knowingly discloses false facts that discredit a person, incurs a penalty of deprivation of liberty from six months to two years or a fine of two hundred to five hundred installments,” end of quote. A crime that, like that of Injury, are only prosecutable by virtue of the complaint of the offended party. The activists about whom Humberto has disclosed false facts may, if they deem it pertinent, accuse him of the commission of the aforementioned crime of Slander before the Criminal Chamber of the Provincial People's Court of Havana. The Complaint appears regulated in the Law of Criminal Procedure, from article 420 to 434. The Complainant, that is, the offended, can establish the Complaint against the Defendant (the offender) by being represented by a Lawyer from the National Organization of Collective Law Firms or by themselves; in the second case it only requires that said Complaint be signed by a Lawyer. Although many think that the dictatorship is going to do nothing, they are the ones that direct and write the comments of Humberto López, and also the owner of justice in the country, it is important to carry out this procedure to confirm that nothing legal works in Cuba, when it goes against the interests of the regime.

5.-Social and Crisis-Related Problems -Cuban activist Ariel Valdés García, a member of the Opposition Movement for a New Republic (MONR), resident on Calle 62 A # 2318% 23 and 25 in the Buena Vista neighborhood, municipality of Playa, died on Friday 22 in Havana. Valdés had been in critical condition for two weeks, with chronic dermatitis and anemia, without receiving adequate medical attention. Several neighbors tried to have him transferred to a hospital for admission and corresponding treatment, without success. Due to his deteriorating condition, the family doctor referred him to the hospital, but he could not be admitted due

49 to lack of beds. Neighbors ended up calling the police, who came and took him to the polyclinic. There they had him waiting from 2:00 pm to 9:00 pm for an ambulance that never arrived. They ended up returning him to his home where he finally died. - The implementation of the monetary rearrangement and the increase in wages and prices collide with banking regulations that prevent customers from withdrawing more than 2,000 pesos a day from ATMs. Belkis Fernández, an employee of the Provincial Commerce Company, explains that since January 1, all Cuban workers earn above that figure, so it is necessary to attend the ATM on more than one occasion to get the entire salary. To this is added the challenge to find an ATM with the lowest denominations; in addition, the exclusion of the 10 and 5 peso bills forces most of the workers to leave a constant minimum of 49 pesos of the salary. - Las Avispas, a baseball team from Santiago de Cuba, after announcing the positive for COVID-19 of outfielder Yeri Martínez, kept their squad in isolation in full development of the 60th edition of the National Baseball Series (SNB in Spanish). --The National Baseball Commission (CNB in Spanish) issued a press release stating that as part of the 44 real-time PCR tests performed on the roster of the Pinar del Río team prior to the 60th National Baseball Series, it was detected a positive for COVID-19. This led to the hospital admitting the affected person, a member of their coaching staff and the quarantine for the other members of that team and that of Holguín, with whom they had already played the first of three games agreed at the Capitán San Luis stadium. - The Cuban Telecommunications Company (ETECSA) announced that as of January 1, it will be offering its customers a permanent 50% discount on voice and data services. In addition, the measures implemented by COVID-19 are extended until January 31, 2021. Among which are the 10% discount on payments for telecommunications services through Transfermóvil and free access through the sites mined.gob.cu; cubaeduca.cu, to informational and research applications. --Danilo Maldonado Machado, announced that his brother José Darién Espinosa Machado was expelled from his current job at the Institute of Research for the Food Industry located in Carretera Central del Guatao km 3 and a half. He stated that it has become customary to fire his brother from work for simply belonging to his family; from the previous job he was also fired under the justification that he was not suitable for washing trays, for the mere fact of wanting to reduce payrolls, without taking into account that he had been in that job for a year. The Cuban government seeks a way to exert pressure on opponents and for this it affects their families. --The Cuban Internet user who identifies herself in the networks with the name of Linna Donatién, denounces the harsh reality of parents on the island on the eve of Three Kings Day. Through social networks Danatién showed a photograph of the endless queue that was created on this day in front of a state establishment. Most of the people in line wanted to buy toys to give to their children; however, many went home empty-handed.

-- An elderly blind Cuban explodes in a Havana street in the municipality of 10 de Octubre, due to the arbitrary behavior of an inspector who confiscated what he was selling. He began to shout what many whisper, because fear does not allow them to raise their voices. "There is hunger and misery"; `` Down with communism, enough for God's sake, get out, you are to serve the suffering Cuban people, you are a scum of people.'' People passed by and few stopped to ask what was happening or help him. -A Cuban mother demands from the island government the high price of the snack she buys daily for her minor daughter and the price of transportation. Arachi Hutchion, a single mother who has two girls, a 9-year-old who is in the 4th grade and the other, 16, who is in her second year of university. She comments that the same snack that previously cost her 10 pesos increased to 22 pesos, and that the transportation for her eldest daughter now costs 4 pesos and her concern is how she will get that sum of money daily. - Cuban trade suffers a new blow with the announcement of new restrictive measures on flights. Among the countries most affected by reductions in the number of flights are the shopping destinations most visited by Cubans: the US, Mexico, Panama, Bahamas, and the . In contrast, there are no restrictions for other nations that have appeared frequently in the statistics of imported cases of covid-19 such as Russia, the United Kingdom or South Africa, countries with a new strain on which there are strong international restrictions. - A young Cuban named Luis Alberto, better known as Lilipi, died in the city of Pinar del Río, after having spent several days fighting for his life in a hospital in the region, after being beaten by a PNR agent. A source close to the victim confirmed that he was in a queue, where he argued with the police who violently pushed the young man, causing him to fall and hit his head. Even so, the agent continued to beat him with the baton without mercy. - The Central of Cuba (BCC) issued a statement in which it disclosed the details of the banking operations for the population, ensuring that the measures were created in favor of the client. The official exchange rate that will be applied in all the country's will be with a 2% commercial margin, which means that people will receive only 23.5 pesos for each dollar exchanged at the windows. This decision contradicts what the regime announced previously, when they assured that the official exchange rate, both for the purchase and sale of dollars would be 24 pesos x 1 USD. - Cuban chess player Lázaro Bruzón, assured through social networks that his criticism of the island's regime is made with pleasure and has nothing to do with whether or not someone pays him, as the defenders of the so-called Revolution argue daily, on its detractors. He affirms that, as long as there is no freedom in Cuba, nor are all Cubans accepted equally, he will continue speaking. Among other ideas he expressed: ``I gave much more to that revolution than it gave to me (...) ´´; `` The argument that those of us who speak loudly are getting paid is well worn out, nobody pays me a dime, I do it with great pleasure and I will continue to do so ''. - Cuban priest Alberto Reyes Pías asked Cubans to act as "free men and women" so that "truth and freedom make their way" in Cuba. The priest of the Catholic Church spoke on the

51 occasion of the New Year to demand the end of the dictatorship in the largest of the Antilles. He argued in his manifesto that Castroism has remained in power not only by stealing and controlling everything in its path, but also by impunity. He recounted the most degrading acts committed by the Cuban dictatorship, including the kidnapping of the justice system by the State, about which he expressed: `` anyone can be denigrated on TV, lied about, a desired profile is knit and sold, without the right or possibility of reply ..., and nothing happens. " --The Cardinal and Archbishop of Havana, Juan de la Cardad García, in his homily for the Day of Peace, called on the faithful not to mistreat each other among Cubans no matter how hard the difficulties or however different they may be or think. The high clergy of the Catholic Church in Cuba express the need to live as brothers and sisters, despite these times of crisis and scarcity that Cuba is going through by the impact of the pandemic, together with the reluctance of the island's regime to undertake reforms that contribute to an authentic improvement in the quality of life, which has exacerbated abuse among Cubans. --The director of the National Center for Sexual Education (CENESEX), Mariela Castro Espín, receives financial support from the Ford Foundation, to organize events called by Castroism in favor of the rights of the LGTBIQ community. Specifically, it is about the First International Graduate School: Genders, Sexualities and Rights, developed in 2019 as part of the tribute by the Latin American Council of Social Sciences (CLACSO) to the 60 years of the arrival to power of the dictator . In this regard, despite the fact that the event was held in honor of the Cuban, socialist and communist Revolution, the financial support for the activities was made by said foundation, an organization that finances social programs and human development, based in the United States. - A sample of the mistreatment among Cubans, against which the Catholic Church makes a call, occurred on the Isle of Youth in a line to buy in a central state-owned store selling in dollars that got out of control. People saw that they would be shut out without being able to buy anything to celebrate the New Year. Several women confronted an officer who wanted them not to report the situation and was calling for reinforcements to help him issue fines C36. - Cuba's dire economic situation is due to much more than the coronavirus crisis; it has structural causes and nothing points to its immediate improvement. Queues and shortages will continue to be part of the day with the most potential to escalate. As long as foreign exchange is scarce, the country will continue in a food crisis. According to official data from the International Payments Bank (BIS), at the end of June 2020, Cuban companies had the equivalent of 867 million dollars in hard currency in bank accounts abroad. In the last 15 years, Cuba had had an average of 2.2 billion dollars in hard currency at the end of each quarter, now having less than half. This translates into a drastic reduction in imports that fell by 34% in the first 8 months of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, according to data from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). --A capitalist message is placed in a slogan transmitted by an official TV channel of the regime. Cuba Petroleo substitutes ``socialism'' for ``better capitalism'' and the picture that

52 refers to the event was broadcast on the Havana Channel newscast, in its broadcast on the afternoon of Monday, January 4. As can be seen in the video, the image appears, with a voiceover that gives information about the liquefied gas of Havana and the scope of its services. The truth is that in the middle of the newscast, this clear message was placed on the logo of the Cuban oil company that has raised the question, whether it was by mistake, or if someone did it in protest mode. --Those responsible get sanctions for the `` error '' made during a report transmitted through the Havana Channel, in which allusion was made to the effects on the distribution of liquefied gas in the capital, with an image promoting capitalism. The short footage quickly went viral. As expected, both the reporter and the editor responsible for the error have been quickly identified and penalties have been applied, since they did not realize that the logo chosen for the audiovisual was not the appropriate one, but one modified as a meme on Twitter. - On Saturday, January 9, the government of Havana approved 22 emergency measures, including severe fines to try to contain the coronavirus outbreak unleashed in recent weeks in the Cuban capital. According to the government announcement, the city is backing down, with monetary sanctions being imposed based on Decree 14/2020, which allows fines of up to 3,000 pesos to be applied to those who violate health regulations. - State fishermen from Nueva Gerona, on the Isle of Youth, have demonstrated against their new salaries assigned after the restructuring of the salary system in Cuba. The fishermen are refusing to go out to sea, because with the new monetary unification they lost their payment in CUC without being compensated what they received in that currency.

Casanella encouraged the health authorities to report on the prognosis for the start of vaccination in Cuba, as well as the potential of the health system to face the worsening epidemic crisis. The scientist cites that Cuba continues to bet on Cuban vaccine candidates I and II, Abdala and Mambisa, to which he alleges that the Cuban government's intention to import a vaccine in more advanced stages should already exist. However, other countries such as Venezuela, Argentina, Mexico, etc., manage the purchase of different vaccines to begin mass inoculation. -Cuban activist, Enrique Figuerola, denounces what he, his wife and his son live in the east of the country.

Her son has pneumonia, but they were sent to that medical center to be tested to rule out the disease. --The judicial power in Cuba alerted parents and legal guardians of minors that if their children are infected with COVID-19 due to irresponsible behavior the former could face criminal proceedings. The provincial media presumes that if the current outbreak has increased in the population in pediatric ages, it is due to the fact that the perception of risk in adults decreased. María Victoria Sifonte Ayup recalled that there are agreements with mass organizations and bodies to work together in the communities, identifying vulnerable families in which children may be exposed to risks. -The Provincial Defense Council of Guantánamo, reported the highest percentage of infections per number of inhabitants in the entire nation, finding at least 100 minors interned.

71 the Government of Havana announced the reduction of the new rates, but without specifying details. Since last January 1, each scoop of ice cream began to be sold at the price of 7 pesos when it previously cost 1.50. The traditional salad that includes five balls was then raised to 35 pesos. Then the reduction of prices was announced in the Round Table after the massive demands of the population where the balls will cost 5 pesos in the open areas, explained the Minister of Internal Trade Betsy Díaz Velázquez. This is not the case in the Las Cuatro Joyas room where the cost of 7 pesos for each 90 gram ball will be maintained because this includes a differentiated service. This is the second time that in a few days the Government has been forced to take a step back because of popular complaints and questions. - The curator of Cuban contemporary art, Jorge Gómez de Mello expressed his dissatisfaction with the bread he bought in a bakery, where they even sell two types of said product. The islander published an image in which a `` rationed '' bread appeared and next to it, another `` free sale '', which the only thing that differed was in its size, since the quality was terrible in both.

Almaguer explicó que cuando anunciaron la subida de precio de este producto, pensó que tendría una mejor calidad, pues dejaría de estar subsidiado por el estado y podría tener todos los ingredientes que lleva. Sin embargo, cuando acudió a la panadería encontró que era el mismo pan de mala calidad que siempre han vendido y se preguntó entonces para que la subida de precio, pues esto solo creará un problema en las familias cubanas.

-A Cuban resident in the province of Holguín named Ernesto Almaguer Díaz denounced on social networks the poor quality of the bread they sell through the supply book despite the rise in its price. Almaguer explained that when the price increase was announced for this product, he thought it would have a better quality, since it would no longer be subsidized by the state and could have all the ingredients it contains. However, when he went to the bakery, he found that it was the same poor-quality bread that they have always sold and then wondered why the price increase, as this will only create a problem for Cuban families

- Cuban evangelical churches appeal to social networks with the purpose of drawing attention to the shortage of medicines for diabetics and criticizing the authorities for their lack of interest in the demands of the population. Pastor Yoel Demetrio, from Las Tunas, said that this situation has been occurring throughout the country for two months and that is why the Christian communities began to communicate with each other, to be able to help if there was availability in other provinces. The priest described the situation as "very serious" and denounced that the government has not responded, nor has it sought solutions for insulin to reach those in need. In addition, he stressed as "subhuman"what is happening on the island. -A Cuban identified as Duviel Ordóñez Ricart, protests the high price of the products sold through the supply book as a result of the monetary rearrangement. He explained that the basic basket for 4 people cost 505 pesos, an excessive amount, and that people will not be able to pay for these products that ultimately are not enough for food during the month. He also makes a call to fight against those who created this problem. --May Rodríguez, a Cuban mother living in Havana, complained about the deep shortage that affects the country and the few options for candies that exist for children. This Cuban said that she toured different stores in the capital with the aim of acquiring food, but was deeply disappointed because the stores were completely empty and she did not find anything she was looking for. She went to a store on as advised, seeking to buy some jams to surprise her daughter, taking herself a very unpleasant one when she saw that they were sold in a freely convertible currency store (MLC). This upset that mother a lot to the point of questioning the government's intentions to act in this unfair way, since the stores in CUP are empty, selling almost everything in the MLC stores that not everyone can access. - Internal Trade Authorities in the Puerto Padre municipality, , informed the population about 5,000 pesos fines for those who do not cancel consumers who are outside the country. The deadline that was given to the cohabiting relatives of those who went on a trip and are still registered in the consumer registry, and acquiring food for them through the supply book, originally expired on Friday, January 15. The high cost of the sanction left the residents without alternatives, who flocked to process the discharge of travelling relatives. Faced with this situation, the authorities were forced to offer two extensions: one valid until January 19 and another that will allow processing until January 31.

-Gaceñigas are sold at a state candy store in Havana wrapped in recycled paper from a funeral home. In a photo on the internet, it can be clearly seen that the gaceñiga is wrapped in a paper used as a Death Certificate, as it was written. This new case adds to the complaint made recently by the Cuban identified as Belkis Martínez, who affirms that this sweet has a terrible quality and that its price increased considerably. -The price of pork in Cuba climbed to a new record figure: 140 pesos per pound. This record was registered in the province of Cienfuegos, although it is probable that in the streets of

73 other provinces the prices are not far from that value, despite the attempts of the regime to force private producers and merchants to sell at capped prices. - Given the lack of liquidity to purchase flour in the international market, the regime has regulated the bread that until two months ago was marketed on free demand. This has meant that in many cases each person can only purchase one of these breads per day. Even so, the product is not enough for everyone who wants to buy it, because current demand exceeds the real possibilities of supply. --The Nuclear City in Cienfuegos is experiencing a true odyssey with the supply of drinking water to its inhabitants since the end of 2020. A neighbor denounced the difficulties in the service, commenting that in January she had only received water twice, with the neighbors being unable to collect a sufficient volume of the precious liquid. The cause of the problem is unknown; some rumors claim that the purification pumps that drive the water were damaged and were sent to Mayabeque to be repaired. To face the shortage, the residents of several buildings of the Nuclear City have carried water from disused cisterns, not enough for everyone. This improvised solution could cause a sanitary situation since the tanks are in the open without any type of protection. - The Mayarí municipality, in the province of Holguín, was considered for decades as one of the richest regions of Cuba, since it has deposits of chromium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, gold and several sources of water that endow its lands of suitable capacity for agriculture. Unfortunately, in recent years the area has slowly been destroyed and the living conditions of its inhabitants have gone from bad to worse. Several factories in the region have gone through a similar situation, many of them being abandoned, causing a shortage of food and agricultural products. All this has led to Mayarí becoming practically a dead zone, whose inhabitants seek to emigrate. - The deficit of drugs highly demanded by the population is prolonged. Among the medicines in short supply in the local pharmacy network are analgesics, anti-inflammatories, antihistamines, oral antibiotics and anxiolytics. The head of the Provincial Department of Medicines and New Technologies, Odalys Lorenzo Morejón, said that there is also instability in the supplies to patients through the control card. The official indicated the use of natural and traditional medicine as an alternative for various treatments in the face of this shortage. -A Cuban identified as Malinalli García makes a public complaint about the act of discrimination she suffered in a store belonging to Palco. Ms. García explains how she was prevented from entering the store even in the company of her foreign friend, because it was only for diplomats. The workers at the center tried to explain to her, very sorry, but it was then that the general director of the Palco Shopping Center appeared and informed her that the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Cuba, Bruno, had given the guideline. - A shipment of onion seized by the police in Villa Clara and sold in agricultural markets in the city was presented by local authorities as part of the actions to confront crime and illegalities. The truck with 12,000 onion harnesses and belonging to the Evelio Molinet Perna Credit and Services Cooperative, from Ciego de Ávila, was stopped on the National highway within the Villa Clara territory for not its driver not showing the legal documents that would

74 guarantee the sale of that amount to the state. The truck was taken to the 3rd Unit of the PNR in Santa Clara. ANALYSIS After having compiled the main social problems, linked to the crisis the country is going through, it can be said that the elderly are among the most affected, particularly those who live on a pension. The lawyer Amelia Rodríguez Cala, who collaborates with the Cuban Center for Human Rights, has given her opinion in this regard, which we reproduce in full: A PENSION IS A RIGHT, NOT AN ACT OF CHARITY

The implementation of the Monetary Rearrangement process provided by Decree Law 17 of November 24, 2020, provides for the monetary and exchange unification, as well as the transformation in the distribution of the population's income in relation to salaries, pensions and benefits of social assistance. Resolution 28/20 issued by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, in its First Resolution establishes the minimum and maximum pensions for retirees and pensioners of the MININT and MINFAR as well as the rest of the pensioners who do not belong to said institutions. In the second paragraph of the mentioned Resolution, it states that the pensions granted by the General Social Security Provision increase those who receive a Pension from 160 to 499 pesos to 1528 pesos. Those who receive a pension greater than 500 pesos receive the same increase. I exclude from the analysis of the amount of the minimum retirement corresponding to the special regimes of the MINFAR and the MININT since it obviously belongs to the retirees of these bodies, therefore I will refer exclusively to CIVILIANS with retirements exceeding 500 pesos. Through Resolution No. 29/20 issued by the Ministry of Labor and Social Security, the country's minimum wage was established, which it claims to guarantee the satisfaction of the basic needs of the worker and their family, where a group of complexities was taken into account, taking into consideration technical positions with intermediate and superior qualification requirements, abnormal working conditions, master's degrees or the equivalent specialty, performance of higher-level positions, professionals with international certifications and others; and they make a detailed analysis of the groups of current complexity, specifying in scale the new salary group. However, this analysis was not made with people whose retirement is greater than 500 pesos and who at the time, for its application, considered not only the group of complexities now mentioned on the occasion of the implementation of the monetary rearrangement process, but also their qualification, in addition to the contribution to the State during its years of useful life established by Law. Therefore, when we stop to review the amounts of the new pensions that are applied to retirees, the profound inequality that exists between the different scales is immediately apparent. Although even for those that previously were paid up to 499 the increase seems to have the intention of balancing the living standards that they had been enjoying from that figure, in an evident and unjustified way, they are not applied with the same measure for the new reality, without our managing to understand why forgetfulness or laziness, the same criteria and the same compensation standards were not taken into consideration for those whose

75

pension exceeds 5OO pesos, leaving these not only in a disadvantaged position, but forced to live below from the levels to which they were accustomed and to whom a personal lifetime of dedication to study, sacrifice, greater obligations, greater risks and responsibilities, gave them the right. Having a bigger retirement doesn't just mean having earned more. The only evaluative criterion in the Resolution that concerns us, but to have contributed more, and it is fair that it is translated at the end of life with a more equitable remuneration, something that has not been respected here, nor has it been taken into account. The new tariff perhaps with an egalitarian intention ... and we all know the inconveniences and disastrous results of egalitarianism ... it does nothing more than reduce the possibilities of a sector that from that moment and without the possibility of giving a new direction to their life, it becomes doubly vulnerable. Why reaching the basic basket and a little more, cannot be the recognition of those who contributed more to the State? The basic basket represents a limited number of products that are not enough to satisfy in principle the diet of an elderly person, adding to the existing corruption, the endless queues, the costs of the food forced to acquire outside the basic basket, since It is well known to ordinary Cubans that with the basic basket no human being feeds either the body or the spirit. That expression a little more, the alms to the retirees, an expression that in addition to being disrespectful, would be worth if those in charge of the process would explain if in that little more includes the costs of water, electricity, transportation, landlines and cell phones, as well as gas, non-regulated food, newspapers, books, magazines, medicines, tickets to museums, theaters, cinemas, ballet, hotels; national and international trips and to which - obviously- retirees must also have access, because they have honestly achieved with a lot of effort, goals in life, in their performance as professionals or others related to their complexity and where those are grouped whose retirement is greater than 500 pesos and are invested with all the rights that are recognized and respected. It is unfortunate as we have heard in so many Round Tables that this Monetary Rearrangement was a process of more than 5 years in the making, where all the variants to eliminate the subsidy were studied, which is important for the economic development of a country, but nevertheless, In this process, prices and pensions were randomized or based on statistics with cold numbers that do not reflect the reality of a worker and less of a retiree, with the premise that “a pension is a right, it is not an act of charity”, an axiom what must be recognized and respected.

7.-Summary The month of January began, and in fact the year 2021, with the Rearrangement Task and the corresponding monetary unification, perhaps in one of the most difficult times of the economy and without alternatives for most of the people because if they do not leave their homes they starve, and if they do, they expose themselves to the virus. The scarcity and rationing policies make the "struggle" a daily exercise for Cubans. Undoubtedly, the shortage of food and raw materials on the island condemns Cubans to having to eat whatever they can get and in most cases of poor quality and at a high price, as is the case with bread; and the reality of the new prices overshadow, even more, the panorama that is lived daily on the island. Far from offering economic security to the population, the so-called policy of rearranging the economy, maintains a climate of social uncertainty in the midst of the worst wave of infections of the Chinese virus. The absolute control of the regime over the economy, food production and its marketing caused the black market line to begin in the furrow and end in the pockets of Cubans. The shortage began on the first day of the year, by establishing the purchase prices to producers and the maximum sale prices of agricultural products. This has led to the closure of private markets and the progressive rise in prices in the informal market in a clumsy attempt to reduce inflation. The young artists of the N-27, together with the San Isidro Movement, once again demonstrated - in a peaceful way - the need for profound changes in the country and, as always, the dictatorship became merciless, with its same methods of hatred and terror. Another 27 has been inscribed in history; but now in January. The US dollar, in most provinces, reaches an exchange rate of 50 pesos, for one. It is always important to remember that the information that can be offered does not cover the generality of the problems related to human rights violations, since it is almost impossible to obtain testimony of all the violations.

The movement of political prisoners during the month is as follows: Released under precautionary measures with bond 2; and 1 for suspension of the oral hearing of the trial. Released with probation 3 and released by serving full sentence 1. 4 transfers from prisons and camps were carried out; but none of them correspond to Aymara Nieto Muñoz in prison in the province of Las Tunas, being a resident of Havana, aggravated by the fact that she has children, a mother and a husband. The arrests in December were 103, and this month they reached 84, which in relative numbers is 81.5%. The distribution by sex and province was as follows: Province Men Women Total Mayabeque 3 1 4 La Habana 29 13 42 Matanzas - 3 3 Villa Clara 9 - 9 Cienfuegos - 1 1 Sancti Spíritus 1 - 1 Ciego de Ávila 5 1 6 Camagüey 1 - 1 Las Tunas 3 1 4 Santiago de Cuba 5 3 8 Guantánamo 5 - 5 Total 61 23 84

Regarding the aspect of Social and Crisis-Related Problems, in order to provide information in this regard, we have included traffic accidents that are not officially published by the regime, always trying to hide anything negative, even if accidental. A series of situations related to the Health System are also reported, which allows us to affirm that it is quite deteriorated. In the same way, some protests are shown that have nothing to do with the dissident movement and are carried out spontaneously without coordination. The problems related to the difficult situation in the country grow every month. The fines are higher than last month, when there were only 10; and in January, 19 fines were imposed; the difference in balance is from 6,660 pesos in December to 13,390 pesos in January, with the following distribution by sex: Province Men Women Total La Habana 4 1 5 Villa Clara 3 - 3 Camagüey 2 - 2 Las Tunas 2 3 5 Santiago de Cuba 1 1 2 Guantánamo 2 - 2 Total 14 5 19
