Havana —
Ramsey Clark, Former U.S. Attorney General, condemned yesterday in this capital
the economic, commercial and financial blockade imposed by the government of
his country against Cuba since more than five decades ago.
At the second
session of the International Health Convention, which is meeting at the
Conventions Palace with the participation of more than one thousand delegates
from 45 nations, Clark highlighted
the impact and solidarity of
the Cuban public health in the world,
despite that genocidal U.S. policy.
In his keynote address at the scientific
meeting, the American jurist noted
the medical cooperation of the Caribbean nation in dissimilar countries where it was needed.
Cuban health
professionals are striving to provide
services to other people, and
have been present to save lives,
often in appalling conditions, he said.
He also said that Cuba
has trained more than 15,000 doctors of
various nations, including
the United States, which he described as
invaluable aid for
those Cuban doctors have humanistic
feelings and work with their hearts.
Dr. José Luis Di Fabio, Island
representative on the Pan-American
and World Health Organization, praised the support of the Caribbean island in the international arena in the area of teachning undergraduates and graduates with a high scientific level and the efficient work of the doctors in the villages where they have lent their solidarity contribution.
Another aspect analyzed
in the second day of the forum was
the progress of triangular
cooperation between Brazil, Haiti and Cuba, and
also highlighted the assistance of
young medical graduates from Venezuela
at the Latin American School of Medicine, who have participated in situations of disasters in Haiti. (AIN)
