The U.S. State Department has imposed new visa restrictions on individuals and organizations involved in the trafficking of Cuban medical professionals, expanding Washington’s pressure on Havana over what officials describe as a forced-labor program that exploits doctors sent abroad by the Cuban government. Secretary Marco Rubio said the measure is intended to deny entry to anyone who profits from or facilitates the deployment of Cuban health workers under coercive conditions. Lawmakers backing the step called the program a form of modern-day slavery and urged other governments to cut ties with it.
🚨 The Cuban regime’s forced labor scheme is modern-day slavery — and every government that enables it is guilty. I applaud @SecRubio & @StateDept for targeting these accomplices. The world must send a clear message: profit from human exploitation, and you will pay the price. https://t.co/cRuH689rmt
🚨 Thank you @SecRubio for standing firm against those who sponsor and profit from this form of modern-day slavery! We must call out and hold fully accountable every regime and organization complicit in human rights abuses. https://t.co/fRApX7Sqw4
Thank you, @POTUS and @AGPamBondi, for standing up for freedom and democracy in Latin America. Maduro and his thuggish regime are evil and will stop at nothing to oppress and steal from the Venezuelan people. We must keep holding him accountable for his crimes! https://t.co/XsmMQtbkTN
