Cuba and India celebrate the 66th anniversary of their bilateral diplomatic relations, based on mutual respect, collaboration, and solidarity.
Today, January 12, 2026, our two countries mark another anniversary of their bilateral diplomatic relations, established in 1960. India was one of the first Asian countries to recognize the young Cuban Revolution. Che Guevara's early visit to India in July 1959; the subsequent meeting between Fidel Castro and Jawaharlal Nehru in New York in September 1960; and Fidel's two visits to India, in 1973 and 1983, consolidated the deep bonds of friendship that endure to this day.
