STATEMENT OF THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS OF CUBA; “THE UNITED STATES STRENGTHENS ITS CAMPAIGN AGAINST CUBA’S INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL COOPERATION”.
The Cuban people and the international community are aware of the dishonest campaign that the government of the United States has launched since 2019 to discredit Cuba’s international medical cooperation; exert pressure on the governments that have asked for it and deprive peoples of these health services.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Cuba denounces that, as part of that offensive, the US government has unleashed an array of pressures and blackmails against the Pan-American Health Organization (PAHO).
