Guyana, Cuba sign pacts on sport, public health

Guyana and Cuba signed several bilateral agreements in the areas of sport and public health, during President Donald Ramotar’s recent three-day visit to that country earlier in the month.

In a press statement the Office of the President said Ramotar also engaged in discussions with Cuban President Raul Castro which focused on the relations between the two countries and developments in the Latin American and Caribbean, during the October 17-20 official visit.

The visit also served to enhance the bilateral programme of cooperation with the signing of agreements on the reciprocal exemption of visa requirements for holders of Diplomatic, Official and Service passports and cooperation in the areas of sports and health. The agreements were signed by the foreign ministers of Guyana and Cuba,
