It represents an honor for us to receive them and we welcome them, the president of the Council of State at the National Capitol said.

Lazo Hernández highlighted the value of the systematic denunciation carried out, from their respective seats, of the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the United States government on Cuba and of the aggressiveness of the imperial anti-Cuban policy.

These exchanges allow, according to the Cuban leader, an opportunity to learn more about the values ​​of Cuban democracy, founded on the principles of the exercise of power in the hands of the people.

The visitors toured the headquarters of the National Assembly and held an exchange with other representatives of the highest legislative body of the Republic of Cuba.
