EDM 837

CUBAN SCIENCE

16.03.04

Gibson/Ian

That this House decries the absurd attack by the US in banning the publication of articles by Cuban authors in US scientific journals; notes that Cuba has been under a trade embargo since 1960 and yet Cuban science in its application in medicine and agriculture is acknowledged to be world class; and believes that this was clearly demonstrated at a recent conference in Parliament hosted by the All Party Group on Cuba and at the Wellcome Trust.
