The official visit takes place August 3-6, the Russian Embassy in Cuba told RIA Novosti.
This is the second time a Russian naval vessel visits Cuba since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The first visit took place in December 2008, when a unit from the Northern Fleet led by the destroyer Admiral Chabanenko made a successful trip to Havana.
