While talking about the meeting in Facebook, the Cuban leader detailed that he reaffirmed to his interlocutor the commitment of his nation to continue promoting South-South cooperation and Triangular Cooperation.

Our country can be an important point for the economic development of the Greater Caribbean, he noted in his message.

Yesterday Diaz-Canel thanked the integration of Cuba as a partner to the BRICS, a group that he described as synonymous with hope in the construction of multilateralism.

He also denounced the consequences of coercive measures imposed by the United States on the construction of the social and development project of the Caribbean country.

The head of State stressed that in the XXI century there is no place for unilateral lists and certifications, based on criteria which he described as unfounded, such as the designation of Cuba on the list of States sponsoring terrorism.

Present and future generations have the right to live in a world of peace and security, where social justice prevails, respect for cultural, ethnic and religious plurality, and democratic access to science and technology, he pointed out.
