10 December 2018. In our Mission in Zambia we kindly remember that on the Day of Human Rights, there are still many humans without rights. And we want to bring to your attention some paragraphs of the speech by our Minister of Foreign Affairs Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla on this issue on 16th May 2018:
Nassau, 8 December 2018 - On the occasion of the 46th anniversary of establishing diplomatic relations among the independent states of CARICOM and Cuba and the 16th anniversary of CARICOM-Cuba Day, the Embassy of the Republic of Cuba in Nassau commemorates such important dates. To mark the occasion, a full programme of activities has been carried out by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba with the participation of CARICOM diplomatic missions accredited to Havana.
Port of Spain, 7 december 2018. Progressive Trade Unions and the MSJ Bid farewell to the Ambassadors of Cuba and Venezuela.
The 8th of December 2018 marks the Forty-Sixth Anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, and Trinidad and Tobago, the four CARICOM countries independent at that time, and Cuba. That historic and courageous act of 8 December 1972 has grown over the years into a strong fraternal relationship between all the Member States of the Caribbean Community and Cuba.
The friendly and close relationship that unites CARICOM and Cuba is a shining example of South-South Cooperation. This is continuously refreshed by regular bilateral interactions as well as by our collaboration in hemispheric and international fora. CARICOM Member States are consistent in supporting Cuba at the United Nations in their battle against the unjust economic and financial embargo imposed on the island by the United States.
Mr. Phil Owen, Director of the Cuban Hospital, Mr. Mohamed Almarri, Executive Director, Professor, Ernesto Lopez, Director of the Cuban Medical Service and Head of the Cuban Medical Brigade, Dr. Angel Mario Felipe, Medical Director of the Cuban Hospital, Compatriots, members of the Cuban Medical Brigade in Qatar. First of all, on behalf of the state mission of Cuba in the State of Qatar, I wish to express our congratulations on the occasion of the Latin American Medicine Day that we have just commemorated and for the organization, once again, of this interesting scientific event.
