In a cordial atmosphere, they reviewed issues of interest for Cuba in the multilateral sphere and the existing cooperation between the two countries in international organizations, especially within the United Nations.

During the meeting, Rivero expressed his gratitude for Norway’s vote in favor of the resolution Necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States of America against Cuba, approved last November 3 at the UN General Assembly.

On Thursday, Cuba’s top diplomatic representative in Norway received poet Gunnar Wærness.

They exchanged ideas on possible actions to develop relations between the two countries in the field of culture and various artistic manifestations, particularly literature.

They also discussed at length the Havana International Book Fair, whose 31st edition is taking place with the virtual participation of Wærness.
