Iran, Cuba agree on joint production of meningitis vaccine: Official

Iran has established collaborations with Cuba in various fields, including the biotechnology field, as the two countries have agreed to cooperate in the joint production of a meningitis vaccine, announced an aide to Iran’s foreign minister.
Issa Kameli, who is also the director general of the Foreign Ministry’s Department of the Americas, told ISNA on Sunday that there is a bright perspective in the relations between Iran and Latin America, as Tehran has a strong will to expand ties with LatAm states based on common interests.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Cuba was the first country to share the vaccine manufacturing technology with us, said the official, adding that this measure of Havana is important and valuable for Iran.
Tehran’s relations with Havana are growing following the visit of the presidents of the two countries and the agreements reached, he said, noting that Cuban officials were also satisfied with the visit they made to Tehran last week.
We are trying to expand relations between Iran and Latin American countries at the highest level, Kameli stated.
