Visiting President of the African Union Commission (AU) Alpha Oumar Konare on Thursday in Havana praised Cuba's friendship with Africa and its willingness to cooperate with African countries.
In an article published in Cuba's official daily Granma on Thursday, Konare said the recent signing of the Memorandum of Understanding between Cuba and the AU will strengthen bilateral links in political, economic and cultural sectors.
"We have the political willingness to continue working together in the same spirit of humanism, based on justice and solidarity, as has always been the case between Africa and Cuba," Konare said.
Konare also said that Africa's development must be designed and implemented by Africans themselves. "This is fundamental and of course we need peace and security," he added.
Konare began his visit to Cuba on Sept. 13 and has met Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque as well as other senior officials.
