Assembly of GAZ cars in Cuba will resume in 2026

Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko announced the cooperation at a plenary meeting of the Intergovernmental Russian-Cuban Commission on Trade, Economic, Scientific and Technical Cooperation, which was held in St. Petersburg, TASS reports.

“This year it is planned to resume the assembly of GAZ cars and open a trading house for their sale in Cuba,” TASS quotes Chernyshenko.
