Dominic Raab thanks Cuba for allowing coronavirus-stricken cruise ship to dock in Havana
In a ministerial statement to MPs, Mr Raab said: “We are very grateful to the Cuban government for swiftly enabling this operation and for their close co-operation to make sure it could be successful.”
Cuba has developed and produces a number of medicines including the anti-viral drug Interferon Alpha 2B, which could save thousands of lives in the pandemic.
The medicine has been produced in China in a Cuban-Chinese joint venture and so far has managed to effectively treat more than 1,500 coronavirus patients there.
Great to see grown up countries co-operating in a crisis.
