Havana, February 27 (RHC) Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canel highlighted the state of relations between his country and Russia, when holding a meeting this Monday with the secretary of the Security Council of the Eurasian nation, Nikolai Patrushev.

During the dialogue, the head of state recalled that important steps have been taken in the ties between both peoples, among which the signing of documents related to Russian-Cuban collaboration stands out.
