Africa-Press – Mozambique. The Cuban government on Wednesday expressed interest in boosting cooperation with Mozambique and exploring opportunities in different areas.
“One of the motivations that bring us here is to boost our cooperation in different areas and explore opportunities in the areas of trade, agriculture, tourism,” said Pavel Diaz Hernández, Cuba’s ambassador to Mozambique.
The diplomat was speaking on the sidelines of a meeting with the governor of the province of Nampula, in northern Mozambique.
At the time, the Cuban ambassador said that with the visit to Nampula he also intended to assess the performance of Cuban health professionals who are in the province.
“The first doctors arrived in this province 45 years ago and today we have an important medical brigade here and they are working,” he said.
Cuba has stood out by sending doctors and nurses to reinforce health professionals in Mozambique.
In March, the Mozambican health ministry announced the arrival of a team of 30 Cuban health professionals to strengthen the country in the fight against the pandemic, which was preceded by another team of 14 professionals who arrived in the country in January.
