Haiti - Politic : Thanks and wishes from the President René Préval to Cuba
President Rene Preval thanked Cuba for its support to the Haitian people in the fight against cholera, and sent a congratulatory message to the people of Cuba to mark the 52nd anniversary of the Cuban Revolution.

"Cuba, in spite of its own difficulties, is the country that helps Haiti the most. They were present even before the earthquake hit us, assisting us in the education and health sectors; and, after the earthquake, this assistance increased" said President Préval.

"The Cuban State, Government and people, and particularly Commander in Chief Fidel Castro, have paid close attention to Haiti" said the head of the Haitian state, recalling that the Cuban leader has dedicated more than five of his reflections to the difficult situation in Haiti.

"More than 500 Haitian doctors have been trained in Cuba and we will soon have 1,500 Cuban health professionals working in the most remote places of my country in the fight against cholera. It is the most important and effective help we have received [...] on the occasion of the double anniversary of the Cuban and Haitian revolutions, on behalf of the Haitian people and Government, on my behalf and in particular on behalf of those who benefit from the Cuban medical assistance, I wish the Cuban people a happy new year. Forever onward to victory! We will conquer!" concluded René Préval.

Recall that on December 31, 2010, the Cuban Medical Brigade had treated nearly 50,000 Haitians infected with cholera and reduced to 0.54% the mortality rate of the disease in the health institutions under their management.
