“The signing of the agreement between the University of Havana and TV BRICS marks the establishment of a strategic alliance that will strengthen cooperation between the International Media Network and our faculties, as well as its students and academic staff. It is another opportunity for the University of Havana to expand international ties with institutions and, overall, to reinforce relations between countries. Relations between Russia and Cuba have always been highly significant for the University of Havana, and we believe that this new step will enable even greater results. Many thanks to TV BRICS for its trust in the University of Havana,” emphasised Rector Miriam Nicado Garcia, Doctor of Mathematical Sciences, Honorary Member of the Cuban Academy of Sciences, member of the Council of State of Cuba, and deputy of the National Assembly of People's Power of Cuba.
