“Cuba extends its congratulations to the government of Côte d’Ivoire on the occasion of the 65th anniversary of its National Holiday.”

We reiterate our willingness to continue working towards strengthening diplomatic relations and establishing links of collaboration and bilateral cooperation.

Côte d’Ivoire was consolidated as a French colony in 1893 in the midst of the “Struggle for Africa” and became independent from French colonial rule on August 7, 1960.
