Argentine President
Visits Cuba To Boost
Bilateral Ties
Havana - Argentine
President Cristina
Fernandez de Kirchner
arrived in Cuba Sunday
on a visit to enhance
bilateral ties and
cooperation between the
two nations, local media
reported.
Kirchner made the trip
at the invitation of his
Cuban counterpart, Raul
Castro.
This is the first
official visit to Cuba
by a Argentine president
in 23 years, which seeks
to revitalize bilateral
ties.
Kirchner will have talks
with Castro and other
Cuban leaders and visit
places of historical,
economical and social
interests, local
newspaper Granma
reported.
Fernandez has delayed
her visit to Cuba for a
week due to a sudden
health problem which
kept her away from
domestic political
affairs.
After her visit to Cuba,
Fernandez will travel to
Venezuela on Wednesday,
where she will meet with
President Hugo Chavez. |
