Prime Minister, Manuel Marrero Cruz, spoke virtually at the meeting of the Eurasian Intergovernmental
Council held Friday, February 5th, 2021.

Havana,  February  5 (RHC)-- Cuba is willing to share with the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) its capabilities in the fight against Covid-19, said Prime Minister of the Caribbean island, Manuel Marrero.

The Cuban Prime Minister spoke virtually at the meeting of the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council held Friday.

He pointed out that the effects of Covid-19 show that solidarity, multilateralism, and cooperation are the most effective means to address common challenges.

Marrero said that Cuba is committed to advancing the integration projects proposed by the UEE and expressed its willingness to share its capabilities in the fight against the pandemic.

He pointed out that the Caribbean island can particularly support medical cooperation, biotechnology, and vaccine production.

The prime minister reaffirmed Havana's willingness to help implement the Strategic Directions for the Development of Eurasian Economic Integration until 2025, which, he said, 'are fully in line with the island's 2030 Economic and Social Development Plan'.

Marrero highlighted the possibility for the Caribbean nation to participate in Eurasian initiatives focused on the energy, industrial, transport, tourism, financial sectors, and projects for the elimination of trade barriers.

He pointed out that the appointment of the ambassador to the Russian Federation, Julio Garmendía, as Cuba's permanent representative to the EEU, and his interaction with the Eurasian Economic Commission, will contribute to a more active engagement of the island in its projects.
