Fernando Gonzalez, President of the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the Peoples, in an interview with
El Ciudadano, a TV BRICS partner, highlighted Cuba’s potential as an associate member of BRICS, emphasising such areas as biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, and education.
“Cuba has much to offer BRICS, from its biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries to advances in healthcare and education,” Gonzalez stated.
He also noted that Cuba’s participation in the group offers development opportunities through projects initiated within the BRICS framework, benefiting not only Cuba but also the international community.
As an associate country, Cuba is already actively cooperating with several BRICS member states on projects of shared interest.
Within the framework of this cooperation, Cuba and Egypt – a full member of BRICS – have strengthened collaboration in the healthcare sector, focusing particularly on pharmaceutical production, technology transfer, and institutional capacity-building.
According to
Prensa Latina, a partner of the media network, during a meeting in Cairo, Cuban Ambassador Alexander Pellicer and Egyptian Minister Khaled Abdel-Ghaffar highlighted the deep historical and cultural ties between the two nations and reaffirmed their commitment to advancing joint projects in pharmaceuticals, scientific research, and public health.
At the same time, Cuba continues to enhance its relations with Brazil, a full member of BRICS. President Miguel Diaz-Canel and Brazil have consolidated a roadmap for food sovereignty and nutritional security, incorporating experience in urban agriculture, renewable energy, and school feeding programs, as well as establishing a joint working group to implement the agreed commitments, according to
El Maipo, a TV BRICS partner.
As reported by
Xinhua News Agency, another member of the media network, Cuba and China have signed 11 cooperation agreements in such areas as infrastructure, artificial intelligence, agricultural collaboration, traditional medicine, and culture.
