In recent weeks, Washington, through Secretary of State Marco Rubio as its front man, has been threatening visa revocations on any regional official linked to Cuban medical professionals working in the Caribbean, as has been the case since the 1970s. Rubio has argued that the current payment system, through which the professionals take home less than 20% of their full monthly pay, should be abandoned to cut out the Cuban system from swallowing up the remainder. As a result, several countries like The Bahamas, Guyana, and Antigua have rushed to comply, in part to allow the medical brigades to continue their lifeline work and to avoid attracting sanctions like visa revocations. PM Pierre says he is unsure what the future holds. “Many of our doctors got trained in Cuba, and now the great U.S. has said we cannot do that any longer, so that is a major problem I have to face. Some of my colleagues (other regional prime ministers) have already taken a position on this and banned them. So, the American government has said that we cannot even train them in Cuba, so I have a major issue on my hands,” he told the conference.

Holy shite, the evil is infinite!

As a compromise, the US has stated they will allow Caribbean students to attend US medical schools free of charge...bwahahahahaha.
