Trudeau: Castro and Cuban

trudeau: Castro highlighted the historical links with Ottawa particularly when the prime minister late father, Pierre Trudeau, governed Canada and remembered his close friendship with former Cuban President Fidel Castro, it said, according to Global Times China. Trudeau will most likely meet with Fidel Castro on Wednesday. During a meeting between Cuban President Raul Castro and visiting Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday night, both leaders reiterated their will to strengthen political relations as well as economic, financial, investment and tourism cooperation between Canada and Cuba, the Cuban government said in a press release. The last time they saw each other was in 2000. His visit aims to open up trade opportunities for Canadian companies which want to cash in on the Cuban government decision to expand foreign investment up to 2 billion US dollars per year. The friendship between your family and mine is long and deep, but it nothing compared to the true friendship between all Canadians and all Cubans and I look forward to continuing to build on that, Trudeau said.
