Syrian-Cuban talks on enhancing trade cooperation

Havana (ST) – President of the Cuban Chamber of Commerce Antonio Carricarte discussed with the Syrian ambassador to Cuba Ghassan Obaid ways to enhance trade relations between the two countries.

During the meeting in the Cuban Chamber of Commerce in the capital Havana, Carricarte stressed the importance of expanding economic relations and trade exchange between Cuba and Syria to upgrade them to the level of the two countries’ distinguished political relations.

Carricarte indicated that despite the imposed American blockade and the lack of raw materials, Cuba maintains good production of some important products and basic commodities.

For his part, Obaid stressed the importance of exchanging visits between Syrian and Cuban businessmen, and holding meetings, even via video, during which needs can be assessed and topics and issues of common interest are discussed.

Obaid reviewed the efforts made by Syria in rebuilding what the terrorist war on the country as well as the earthquake that struck Syria last year has destroyed.
