Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.- An important exchange of experiences took place on Wednesday at the Cuban Embassy here between participants in the III International Symposium on the Cuban Revolution: Genesis and Historical Development, held in Havana in October, and members of that diplomatic mission.
