Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central
Committee and Chinese president, has replied to Cuban leaders in
appreciation for their congratulations on China's complete victory in
poverty alleviation. Xi's letter of reply was sent recently to Raul Castro Ruz, first
secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba Central Committee, and Cuban
President Miguel Diaz-Canel. In his letter, Xi said that China and Cuba are good friends, good
comrades and good brothers, and in recent years, the bilateral
traditional friendship has deepened and friendly cooperation has
developed in an all-around way. In the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic, China and Cuba helped
each other in the same boat, and the friendship between the two
countries has been raised to a new height, Xi said. China will as always support Cuba in staying committed to the
socialist path and will bring China-Cuba relations to a new level, Xi
added. On behalf of the Communist Party of Cuba, the Cuban government and
people, the two Cuban leaders warmly congratulated China on its
all-around victory in poverty alleviation. They praised China, led by the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi
Jinping at the core, for succeeding in eliminating extreme poverty and
achieving the poverty eradication goals outlined in the United Nations'
2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development 10 years ahead of schedule. They said that Cuba is willing to unswervingly deepen the friendly and cooperative relations between the two countries.
