Cuba and Saint Lucia together at Gros Piton!

The flags of Cuba and Saint Lucia were displayed together on Saturday, August 15th, at the top of Gros Piton. The Cuban Ambassador, Alejandro Simancas and his family, along with more than forty members of the Cuban Medical Brigade working in Saint Lucia, climbed to the top of this emblematic and beautiful mountain.

Everyone together at the top of Gros Piton dedicated this symbolic action to the historical ties of friendship and solidarity that link the two countries, and also to the historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro on the 94th anniversary of his birth, celebrated on August 13th. Castro’s historical contribution was fundamental to the development of Cuba’s relations with Saint Lucia and with the Caribbean.
