Iran boosts health diplomacy in Geneva


Einollahi met the health ministries of Cuba, Armenia, and Zimbabwe, from May 27 to June 1, IRNA reported.

While meeting Einollahi, the Cuban health minister, José Angel Portal Miranda, expressed interest in developing cooperation with Iran, particularly in the field of medicine and medical equipment.

“The Joint Economic Commission meeting in Havana in mid-June this year provides a valuable opportunity to learn about the capabilities of the Cuban health system,” he added.

Einollahi, for his part, said, "The cooperation between Iran and Cuba during the Covid-19 outbreak led to the joint production of the Soberana vaccine.”

Highlighting Iran's capabilities in the health sector, Einollahi invited the Cuban official to pay a visit to the country and gain more insight into Iran’s capabilities in various fields of health.
