Deputy Minister of International Relations and Cooperation Lewellyn Landers says Cuba’s gone beyond helping the armed struggle.

It’s continued to stand with South Africa in its  efforts to build a better life for all its people, by supporting efforts  in the fields of skills development and technical co-operation.

He tells his Cuban counterpart  Marcelino Medina Gonzalez South Africa will continue in its international solidarity campaign to end the economic blockade by the United States and we will redouble efforts to campaign for the rightful return of Guantanamo Bay to its rightful owners – The People of Cuba.
