China's Party delegation visits Cuba for seminar on party building

Xinhua, December 9, 2016 Adjust font size:

A delegation of the Communist Party of China (CPC) is in Cuba for the second seminar between the communist parties of China and Cuba.

Guo Weimin, vice minister of the State Council Information Office, briefed his Cuban counterparts on the sixth plenary session of the 18th Central Committee of the CPC held in October.

The delegation, led by Guo, discussed issues related to party building and state governance for two days with their Cuban counterparts headed by Jose Ramon Balaguer Cabrera, member of the Central Committee Secretariat and head of international relations department of the Communist Party of Cuba. The first such meeting was held in 2014 in Beijing.

Balaguer congratulated the CPC on the achievements of the session, and hoped the two parties would carry out more exchanges on the experience of party building and state governance to enhance the cause of socialist construction.

During the visit that started on Sunday, Guo also met with Angel Arzuaga, deputy head of the Ideology Department of the Cuban Communist Party's Central Committee, Luis Enrique Gonzalez Acosta, president of Prensa Latina, and Alfonso Noya Martinez, president of the Cuban Institute of Radio and Television.
