Statement by Yaira Jiménez Roig, Director of Communications of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba

Good morning

I would like to thank and greet all those who are watching me right now through the Youtube channel of our chancellery. We have created this space to offer information about recent events in which our country decided to discontinue its participation in Brazil’s More Doctors Program. Upon this decision, our health professionals have started to return to our country.

I advise you that we will be broadcasting live, in Spanish, and once this transmission concludes, we will be airing it in Portuguese and English.

Declaration of the Ministry of Public Health of Cuba

The Ministry of Public Health of the Republic of Cuba, committed to the solidarity and humanistic principles that have guided Cuba’s medical cooperation for 55 years, has been participating in the Program More Doctors for Brazil since its inception in August 2013. This initiative launched by Dilma Rousseff, who was at that moment the president of the Federal Republic of Brazil, pursued the double purpose of guaranteeing medical assistance to the majority of the Brazilian people, following the principle of universal health coverage promoted by the World Health Organization.

Statement of the Embassy of the Republic of Cuba in Commemoration of National Culture Day

On October 20, 1968, the Cuban National Anthem was written, and sung for the first time, during the festivities for the capture of the city of Bayamo by the Cuban independence troops. With a marked patriotic character, La Bayamesa, the name with which the song was known, is a call to the fight for the independence and sovereignty of the country. Since then, the National Anthem is an expression of the most deeply rooted pro-independence and patriotic values of the Cuban people, as well as the most genuine sense of nation and Cuban roots.
