Cuba Denounces Program to Stimulate its Doctors' Brain Drain

Havana, Jan 12 (Prensa Latina) Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel denounced Saturday attempts to impose the Cuban Medical Parole Program, established by the U.S. government of George W. Bush (2001-2009) and repealed by that of Barack Obama (2009-2017).

'They are trying to impose a perverse resource to stimulate brain drain. One more anti-Cuban campaign, which reveals imperial impotence in the face of revolutionary conquests. Its promoters cannot favor a civilized relationship, they are blinded by the arrogance #SomosCuba', wrote the Head of State in his Twitter @DiazCanelB.

Cuban-origin senators Marco Rubio and Bob Menendez introduced a resource in Congress last Thursday to demand the current administration re-establish the brain drain program aimed at health professionals working on medical missions abroad.

Carlos Fernandez de Cossio, US general director of Cuba's foreign ministry, posted on Twitter on Friday that powerless resentment against Cuba has no limits.

Uncapable of hindering recognized human professional development, baseball quality and potential investment. Bob Menendez and Marco Rubio want to restore a brain drain program against Cuban doctors', the diplomat wrote in his Twitter @Carlos FdeCossio.
