Havana, Apr 5 (RHC) Havana and Lisbon have initiated several ministerial meetings in order to consolidate cultural interchange.

Américo Castro, president of Cuba-Portugal's Chamber of Commerce said to RHC that in 2016 they will spend several days deepening the cultural expressions of both countries.

¨Right now we are putting together a plan where we want to bring to Cuba several groups representing various areas of culture. We are planning to present an exhibition of a renowned Portuguese Sculptor, Juana Vasconecelos. We are thinking of organizing -if possible- a world championship of beatboxing; in Portugal we have many world champions in free-dance.

We visited the circus school here in Cuba yesterday and I think we can have an exchange in some areas.¨

He also said he hopes to have the presence of some Cuban artists during the day, celebrated every year in Portugal, dedicated to Cuba.

¨Last year we had two concerts of José María Vitier in Portugal, one in Oporto and another in Lisbon. It was a formidable thing, theaters were completely filled and everybody was asking for another presentation like that. I think we have many ideas to make fantastic things. I would say as Raul Castro says "slowly but not stopping".

Américo Castro, president of Cuba- Portugal's Chamber of Commerce said that 2016 will be a prosperous year in cultural exchange between Cuba and Portugal.
