“We will have a summit of the leaders of ALBA, which includes the governments of Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Bolivia, and all the independent countries of the OECS. I do not know if we will have leaders from all of them or if there will be foreign ministers”.

This week is historic for both nations as they celebrate 30 years of diplomatic relations on Friday.
