Head of the United Nations Stabilization Mission (MINUSTAH) Edmond Mulet said that the work Cuban doctors are carrying out in Haiti is extraordinary.
“Cuban doctors are working on every corner of Haiti devotedly, despite the hard situation the country faces, a horrible situation indeed," told the official to the Prensa Latina news agency.
“They are here despite the hardships. They are committed professionals making a remarkable effort to help the people of Haiti,” he said, adding that he is an admirer of the work these men and women have been doing here, not only after the January 12 earthquake, but long before.
He also made reference to Cuban medical missions in other Latin American countries.
The Henry Reeve Brigade in Haiti is made up by professional from 22 Latin American and Caribbean countries, including 7 American graduates from Cuba’s Latin American Medical School.
The first team of Cuban doctors arrived in Haiti in 1998 with the objective of helping the people recover from the devastating effects of Hurricane Georges, which hit the country on September of the same year
