The US Increases Pressure On Cuba By Targeting Its Medical Brigades

On August 13, the United States launched another attack on Cuba. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that his country would impose visa restrictions on officials from Brazil, Grenada, and African countries who hire or have hired Cuban medical brigades.

According to Rubio, the work of Cuban doctors working in other countries is “forced labor”. The decision is part of a tightening of measures against the Caribbean island, which are in addition to the economic and commercial blockade imposed on the island as a means of punishment against the revolutionary process that began in 1959.

“Today, the State Department took steps to impose visa restrictions on officials from the African, Cuban, and Grenadian governments, and their families, for their complicity in the Cuban regime’s medical mission plan,” Rubio said.
