ALBA-TCP approves mission to support Cuba’s electricity restoration

The Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America-Peoples’ Trade Treaty (ALBA-TCP) approved on Sunday the creation of the International Energy and Electricity Mission to support the complete restoration of Cuba’s electrical system.

This was announced by Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, who read the final declaration of the 25th Summit of Heads of State and Government, held virtually on Sunday among its nine member countries.

The Venezuelan president stated that he had given instructions to increase “everything we are doing, two or three times over,” and assured that “we will emerge better, stronger, more aware, and more victorious than ever.”

The final declaration comprises 13 points and is framed within the context of the centennial of the birth of the historical leader of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro, the bicentennial of the Amphictyonic Congress of Panama of 1826, and the growing threats to peace and stability in Latin America and the Caribbean.
