    SA scraps Cuba's R1bn debt

    A debt of R1.1bn owed by Cuba for diesel engines bought from South Africa during the 1990s was cancelled on Tuesday, the presidency said.

    "It is not as if Cuba could not repay the debt. The problem is that it was becoming a hindrance to trade and economic development between two countries," Trade and Industry Minister Rob Davies said in a statement issued by the presidency.
    Dear South African Government,

    It's not like I can't afford to pay my taxes, but it's just a hindrance to my economic development that I feel you should also scrap that debt too.

    "Today South Africa has many newly found friends. Yesterday these friends referred to our leaders and our combatants as terrorists and hounded us from their countries while supporting apartheid ... These very friends today want us to denounce and isolate Cuba. Our answer is very simple: it is the blood of Cuban martyrs -- and not of these friends -- that runs deep in the African soil and nurtures the tree of freedom in our country."

    Thenjiwe Mtintso, South Africa's ambassador to Cuba, December 2005
