Havana, March 3 - Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel reiterated on Tuesday US failure on distorting alleged health incidents of US diplomats in Havana.
The president shared on Twitter an article issued in the national daily Granma that collects the results of a scientific event arranged by the Academy of Sciences of Cuba to address these incidents again.
The pieces of evidence presented in the quotation 'clearly rejects the theories put forward by the State Department as a pretext for the backward movement in bilateral relations with Cuba,' according to the information.
In this regard, the director of the Neurosciences Center of Cuba Mitchell Valdes stated there is no evidence of damage to the brain networks of diplomats allegedly attacked.
'It is not possible to support the idea that the same illness caused by an external agent allegedly occurred in Cuba in a number of people,' added Dr. Valdes, who advocated collaboration to clarify these incidents.
On August 2017, the State Department alleged that several US diplomats were affected by an alleged hearing loss.
In response, the United States expelled 15 Cuban diplomats from Washington and withdrew most of theirs from Havana; then, he closed the consulate on Cuba.
The Cuban authorities reiterated from the outset that there was no evidence of any kind of act against US diplomats in Havana.
They denounced that the US uses that issue as a pretext to impose measures against bilateral relations, and all this time there has only been speculation and little information and cooperation.(PL)
