Cuba-Panama Ties Highlighted
President of the Cuban
parliament Ricardo Alarcon
highlighted the friendship and
cooperation ties between his
nation and the Panamanian people
on Thursday.
In his intervention at the 10th
Inter-parliamentary Meeting of
both countries taking place in
the Cuban capital, Alarcon
pointed out that Panama carries
the idea of the Latin American
unity and solidarity in its
blood.
He recognized the Panamanian
National Assembly for the
support to the Cuban five
antiterrorist fighters unjustly
imprisoned in the US and
referred to the recovering of
the Canal as an overwhelming
victory.
The Cuban official referred to
that achievement as the result
of the Panamanian people's fight
and of the great continental
solidarity with the nation Simon
Bolivar described as the heart
of a united Latin American
homeland.
For his part, Elias Castillo,
president of the Panamanian
National Assembly, expressed
confidence on coming steps to
strengthen the
inter-parliamentary relations,
demanded the end of the US
blockade and thanked the
Caribbean nation for its
support.
