In commemoration of the 850th anniversary of the city of Glasgow, various official activities were held on Monday organised by the Glasgow City Council to celebrate the twinning between this city and Havana, a relationship of brotherhood that dates back to 2002 and symbolises more than two decades of solid friendship, cooperation and cultural ties between the two cities.
The rector of the Central University "Marta Abreu" of Las Villas (UCLV), Dr. Luis Antonio Barranco Olivera, heads the delegation visiting the University of Glasgow as part of the strengthening of academic and scientific links between the two institutions.
The delegation is made up of Dr Yanelis Delgado Triana, Director of International Relations; Dr Anabel Díaz Hurtado, Vice-Chancellor; and Dr Ginley Durán Castellón, Director of University Assets.
On December 6 and 7, Ambassador Ismara Vargas visited Glasgow to promote academic, cultural and solidarity initiatives between the two cities. The visit was marked by meaningful engagements that underscored the strong and enduring relationship between Havana and Glasgow, twin cities since 2002.
