Sri Lanka looks to Cuba for drug production help
COLOMBO – Sri Lanka’s Prime Minister Harini Amarasuriya has discussed Cuban investment in the production of pharmaceuticals during a meeting with Cuban Ambassador to Sri Lanka Andres Marcelo González Garrido on Tuesday (15)
A statement from the PM’s office said the Cuban envoy had said his government was paying attention to the production of medicines in Sri Lanka.
Garrido had also said Cuba looks forward to “further strengthening of the nearly 65-year long diplomatic relationship between Sri Lanka and Cuba, resumption of the stalled mosquito control projects implemented under Cuban aid, including training of Sri Lankan trainers and students in medical and sports education for universities.”
Amarasuriya thanked the ambassador for Cuba’s continued support despite the economic challenges faced by the country in the past few years and extended an official invitation to the Cuban Prime Minister to visit Sri Lanka.
