Cuba congratulates Mozambique on Independence Day

The Cuban Foreign Ministry today congratulated the Government and people of Mozambique on the occasion of its National Day of Independence.

Through its Twitter profile, the Cuban Foreign Ministry confirmed its willingness to continue strengthening the existing ties of friendship and cooperation in various sectors.

Diplomatic relations between Cuba and Mozambique were established at the very moment when the African nation achieved its independence, on June 25, 1975, and since then, they have developed a close collaboration in areas such as medical assistance, education, agriculture, and in training of human resources.

Finally, Mozambique maintains an unequivocal position against the US blockade on Cuba, which it expresses every year with its vote, both in the United Nations General Assembly and in regional organizations, mainly the African Union.
