Barbados Prime Minister Mia Motley rejected the U.S. government’s actions against Cuba’s medical cooperation and said that defending it is a matter of principle.
Motley rejected the U.S. government’s threats about alleged human trafficking by accepting Cuban cooperation and recalled that his government condemned such a claim even since it was attempted to be installed during the Joe Biden administration.
“Without Cuban doctors and nurses we could not overcome the Covid-19 pandemic,” the president stressed, while reiterating that if the U.S. government does not understand it that way, losing her visa to enter that country does not intimidate her.
Motley referred to the decision of the U.S. State Department to deprive of visas those who supported or support the Cuban health cooperation program.
She affirmed her willingness to reiterate together with the rest of the Caribbean to the United States that “what Cubans have been able to do for us, far from resembling human trafficking, has been to save lives and the sight of many Caribbeans,” she concluded.
