According to the statement, “the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation of Eastern Africa of the United Republic of Tanzania, His Excellency Mr. Mahmoud Thabit Kombo” will conclude his visit on the 5th of November.

The agenda of the Tanzanian Foreign Minister includes “conversations with Cuban authorities and other activities of interest.”

Cuba established diplomatic relations with Tanzania in 1962 and shortly after, in 1964, began to provide assistance to that country, mainly in the areas of Education and Health.

Tanzania, located on the east coast of Central Africa, supports Cuba’s fight against the United States’ blockade, which hinders the economic growth and social development of the island.
