SP Brazil March 23, 2020

Dear Miguel Díaz-Canel, President of the Republic of Cuba,

I am writing to talk about the emotion I felt when I saw the image of Cuban doctors arriving in Italy, to help help the victims of the coronavirus pandemic in that country.

Once again, the government and the people of Cuba give the world an example of solidarity, overcoming all barriers, be they of an economic, geographical or political nature. It is in moments of crisis that we meet the truly great. And in these hours the people of that island are always gigantic before the world.

Cuba’s active, militant and revolutionary solidarity has already been evident in various parts of the planet, in a haughty and sovereign response to those who try to impose the economic blockade and political isolation. The Brazilian people will be eternally grateful for the role they played in our More Doctors program, in a cooperation that saved countless lives and taught a lot to our own health professionals. That cooperation was brutally interrupted by a petty government with the people and blinded by an individualistic and inhuman ideology.

In these moments of crisis due to the coronavirus, unfortunately in a more suffering way for our people, everyone is having to acknowledge the lack that fellow Cuban doctors do to us here. I ask you, dear colleague Díaz-Canel, to convey to the Cubans, especially to the scientists and health professionals who are in this hard fight for life around the world, the recognition, admiration and gratitude of the Brazilian people.

We will be together, always, until victory,

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva

For his part The President of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel, thanked the letter from former Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, who conveyed his admiration and gratitude to the island for the international solidarity shown before Covid-19.

¨Thank you brother for your message of encouragement and support. The Cuban people are with you. Hugs, ”wrote the head of state on his Twitter account.
