CUBA

The Aambassador of the Republic of Cuba, David Rivero Pérez, made a working visit to the island of Nevis, where he was received by the Minister of Health of this territory, Jahnel Nisbett, Senator with ministerial responsibilities in Health, Gender Affairs and Social Services. She was also accompanied by the Permanent Secretary of the branch, Shelisa Martin-Clarke. The meeting made it possible to confirm the excellent state of cooperation in health matters after a review of the main issues, while leaving open the possibility of an increase in this regard.

With the conviction that the Homeland is one and that wherever we are we will be part of it, several topics of great interest were debated this weekend in a meeting with a representation of the Cuban community residing in St. Kitts, Ambassador David Rivero and Ivón Tomé, Counselor in charge of consular affairs in this Federation.

As usual, every year the Embassy of Cuba in St. Kitts and Nevis organizes a meeting   with the young people of this Federation who benefitted from the Scholarship program that the Cuban government grants as part of the cooperation agreements between Cuba and CARICOM member countries. On this occasion, four medical doctors who graduated in Cuba will soon begin a new period of studies on the island. They will study the medical specialties of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Geriatrics and Gerontology, Gastroenterology and Radiology, starting in February.
