HAVANA, Oct.19 (Xinhua) -- Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel will visit three European countries and attend the 18th Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) Summit in Azebaijan, a Cuban newspaper said Saturday.

Diaz-Canel is scheduled to pay official visits to Ireland, Belarus and Russia from Sunday, and attend the NAM Summit to be held in Azebaijan's capital Baku on Oct. 25-26, reported the Granma daily, official newspaper of the Cuban Communist Party.

Diaz-Canel will have official conversations with his counterparts of the three countries and carry out other activities during his visits, the report said.

The NAM, with 120 member states as of 2012, is a forum founded in the former Yugoslavia in 1961. Now the NAM countries represent nearly two-thirds of the United Nations members and contain about 55 percent of the world's population.
