Cuban Parliament assesses economic transformation proposals

Havana, Cuba – Cuba’s Council of State has called an extraordinary third session of the National Assembly of People’s Power, to be held Thursday afternoon during the legislative body’s 10th term. The gathering carries major national significance, as it will bring together parliamentary representatives to evaluate a sweeping set of policy blueprints for economic and social development that were publicly unveiled just days prior by Miguel Diaz-Canel, who serves both as President of Cuba and First Secretary of the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC).
