The President of the Republic of Haiti, Jovenel Moïse left the country yesterday Friday to make an official visit to Mexico, Trinidad and Tobago and Cuba.

This Saturday, December 1, 2018, the Head of State will attend the inauguration of the elected President of Mexico, Mr. Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.

On Monday 3rd December 2018, Jovenel Moïse will participate in an extraordinary meeting of CARICOM Heads of State and Government in Trinidad and Tobago on the unique market and economy.

On the same day, the Haitian President will visit Cuba, as part of the celebration of twenty years of Haitian-Cuban cooperation; he will meet officially with the Cuban authorities and carry out other activities.

According to the program, the head of state will hold official talks with the Cuban authorities and will pay homage to the national hero, José Martí, at the commemorative monument of the capital that bears his name.

Moses announced last August his intention to travel to Cuba to visit the young people of his country who study in the largest island of the West Indies. On this occasion, the President thanked Cuba for its cooperation, saying that "Cuban cooperation, if it's not the best, is one of the best," adding that the island has helped Haiti in all areas.

Recall that diplomatic relations between Cuba and Haiti were established in February 1904, and since then, ties of friendship have been strengthened, especially in recent years thanks to the help and cooperation provided by the Governmen and the Cuban people.

In addition to medicine, Havana and Port-au-Prince have developed programs in areas such as agriculture, fisheries, education, water resources, construction and meteorology.
