Nicaraguan Ambassador to Havana, Luis Cabrera, highlighted the determination of Nicaraguan youngsters, on their 6th year of medical studies at the Latin American School of Medicine, to treat their humble country fellows.
You are the new men and women Nicaragua needs, said the diplomat on Saturday during a flag hand-over ceremony of the 1st "Vilma Espin" Nicaraguan Medical Brigade, expected to return home today.
He noted that these young medical students, a fruit of the Bolivarian Alternative for the Americas (ALBA), will serve in the Nicaraguan Atlantic coast, the country's most neglected and humble area, home to several indigenous communities.
You are the children of our people and are returning to them, said Cabrera, who urged them to honor with their work the figure of late revolutionary Vilma Espin, after whom the health brigade was named.
