Mr. Than admired the Cuban government's policy of establishing an organization to represent small and medium-sized businesses, and he hoped that through today's meeting, the Ambassador would have the opportunity to learn more about the activities of the Cuban government. of VINASME and select good and innovative ideas to implement.
