Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Defence
Current Political Situation in Cuba: Mr. Fernando Gonzáles Llort
9:00 am
Mr. Fernando González Llort:
I do not have the figures on the level of trade that exists between Ireland and Cuba but I imagine it is heavily impacted by the embargo the United States has on Cuba. The magnitude of the trade is small; it is concentrated in replacement pieces for construction and some dairy products. Ireland has a lot of spheres in which trade could be beneficial to both countries. We should look for ways to promote that trade without letting the US embargo affect it.
