Cuban President Meets with Russian parliamentary leader

Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel Bermudez met on Monday with the top leader of the Legislative Assembly of Saint Petersburg, Viacheslav Makarov, who repeated his country's condemnation of the US blockade of the Caribbean island.

Makarov highlighted the Russian's affection for the Cuban people and called to make emphasis on bequeathing that mutual love between the two peoples to the youngest generations.

For us, Cuba will always be the island of liberty, Makarov noted.

Meanwhile, Diaz-Canel referred to the new aggressive actions by the United States, which are now aimed at preventing fuel supplies to Cuba, and sanctioning shipping and insurance companies.

At the end of his visit to the venue of the Parliament of Saint Petersburg, where 50 lawmakers hold sessions, the Cuban president signed the visitors' book.
