Published March 02, 2015 EFE

Uruguay's newly sworn-in President Tabare Vazquez met here Monday with
Cuba's Raul Castro and the two leaders agreed on "the importance and
necessity" of strengthening bilateral economic ties, according to a
joint statement.

The men met in private for about an hour and were then joined by members
of their respective Cabinets.

The talks contributed to continued progress on "an ever-wider and more
dynamic bilateral agenda," the joint statement said.

The two presidents reviewed successes of previous cooperation between
their countries and identified new goals in areas such as training and
education, health services, social development and science and
technology, according to the statement.

Vazquez and Castro also exchanged opinions on regional and multilateral
issues.

Castro traveled to Montevideo for the inauguration of Vazquez, who
previously governed Uruguay in 2005-2010. EFE
