Venezuelan ship with spoiled food for Haiti is anchored in Puerto Cabello
The vessel returned on June 6 and some containers have been unloaded


Members of the staff of the Puerto Cabello Ports Authority confirmed the presence of Santa Paula, a ship with the Venezuelan flag, which was returned to Venezuela by authorities of the Dominican Republic, where the ship had been sent with a shipment of spoiled food to aid Haiti.

According to the reports, the ship is anchored in the C area of the docks. The entry date was June 6. Sources have said that some containers have been unloaded.
The Venezuelan ship was returned from Dominican Republic because the containers with humanitarian aid sent to Haiti had rotten food.

Members of the staff of Bolipuertos who work in the primary area of the docks have said that the ship arrived at the shipping terminal a few days ago. The vessel brought back 68 containers with approximately 39 tons of rotten food.

1. I guess Venezuela is getting very disorganized
They should know not to send spoiled food to the Haitians. All this does is ruin the Venezuelan government's reputation. Between this and the other issues like the nationalization of private property and attacks on free press, they are quickly going to become the black sheep of the Latin American world.
