Havana - Ecuadorian President Rafael Correa
on Friday met for several hours with the
leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel
Castro, in Havana, to discuss social
projects under way in the two countries.
The Juventud Rebelde daily reported on
Sunday that Correa and the Cuban leader
exchanged viewpoints about the current
revolutionary situation in Cuba and Ecuador
in their search for greater equality and
social justice.
The two leaders spoke about the achievements
of the citizen's revolution carried out by
Correa, particularly in the economy,
education and health.
Fidel Castro praised the Manuela Espejo
Mission, which provides efficient medical
and social care to Ecuadorian disabled
people.
In the fraternal meeting, Fidel and Correa

in 2009. Now he has returned on a private
visit to rest and undergo a medical checkup.
