President Ollanta Humala welcomed the announcement about an approach between the United States and Cuba by emphasizing it to be "a key, historic and brave step” in favor of Americas' integration process.
"This is a key, historic and brave step that will enable [nations] to advance in the integration process," he declared to Peruvian official television station TV Perú.
The Head of State reminded Peru's position, expressed at international forums, which has always been “in favor” of Cuba's inclusion in the region.
The message by Peru's President comes after US and Cuba Presidents have engaged in starting talks to normalize diplomatic relations.
