Cuba-Nauru Joint Commission to Open in Havana

Havana, Oct 2 (acn) The first session of the Cuba-Nauru Joint 
Intergovernmental Commission for Economic Cooperation, which seeks to 
expand and strengthen bilateral cooperation between the two nations, is 
opening on Tuesday in this capital.

Nauru's Foreign and Commerce Minister, David Adeang, is heading the 
delegation from this island state in the Pacific Ocean that established 
diplomatic relations with Cuba on May 7, 2002.

Adeang arrived in Havana on Monday at the invitation of his Cuban 
counterpart, Felipe Perez Roque. The Oceania diplomat held talks on 
Monday with Perez Roque at the Cuban Foreign Ministry's headquarters in 
Havana and met high-ranking Cuban officials in the fields of healthcare 
and education.

On Tuesday, Adeang laid a wreath on a monument of Cuban National Hero, 
Jose Marti, in Havana and toured the capital's historical center. He is 
also scheduled to chair the opening of the Cuba-Nauru Joint 
Intergovernmental Commission before wrapping up his first official 
visit to the island.

Nauru is a rocky 21-square-kilometer island that has just over 13,500 
inhabitants. It is located on the Pacific Ocean, south from the equator 
and the Marshal Islands, and 4,000 kilometers northwest from Australia. 
It has no official capital, and the government venue is based in the 
district of Yaren.

Nauru was the first small island state in the Pacific to benefit from 
Cuban cooperation in the fields of healthcare and education. A group of 
Cuban doctors are currently serving in Nauru while the Cuban teaching 
method "Yes, I can", which has proven efficient in 25 countries, has 
also been implemented since last June in that nation.
