THE Kremlin on Friday said Russian President Vladimir Putin sent a message of congratulations to Miguel Diaz-Canel on his election as Cuban president.
Putin said he assigned high priority to strengthening Russia’s strategic partnership with Cuba and hoped that the upcoming visit of Diaz-Canel to Russia will further expand ties across a number of areas.
