VOICED : Francia apoya el levantamiento del embargo a Cuba

Mathias Fekl, France's Secretary of State for Foreign Trade and Tourism Promotion, visited Cuba to express France's full support for lifting the embargo on the island. He emphasized the strategic importance of this move for the future. The US abstained from voting against the UN resolution condemning the embargo for the first time. In Cuba, Fekl praised the renegotiation of Cuba's debt with the Paris Club, which forgave interest in exchange for investments. France played a key role in this historic agreement and has opened a development agency in Cuba to support projects following the debt agreement in December 2015.
