During the welcoming ceremony, Nicaraguan Ambassador Luis Cabrera sent an eternal thank-you message and respect on behalf of President and Commander Daniel Ortega as well as Vice President Rosario Murillo.

‘Here we are, always together and enlightened by hope, work and courage, creating -bare-chested- new times for peace and development. Always brothers and in solidarity,’ Nicaraguan diplomat stressed.

Cuba´s Food-Processing Industry Minister Manuel Sobrino meant the donation arrival proves how strong the historical Nicaragua-Cuba relations has always been and, as reported, supplies are immediately destined to fight the Covid-19 pandemic and free distribution to Cuban people.
