Managua, July 20 (Prensa Latina) Sandinista media outlets today highlighted the presence in Nicaragua of Cuban Vice Prime Minister Jorge Luis Tapia at the central event commemorating the 46th anniversary of the triumph of the Revolution, celebrated this Saturday.

El 19 digital cited a note published on the Cuban Foreign Ministry’s website, which highlights that the high-ranking leader of the Caribbean country attended the celebration led by Nicaraguan co-presidents Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo.
