Italy’s Calabria region continues to use Cuban doctors in local hospitals under a long-running program, despite efforts by the United States to end it, according to multiple reports. The program places Cuban medical professionals in healthcare facilities in Calabria, where they have been working for years. The coverage describes Calabria’s stance as defying US pressure, with the regional administration maintaining that the arrangement is continuing. While the articles note that US authorities have sought to terminate the program, they do not agree on new specific enforcement actions or the legal basis for either side within the information provided. The reports focus on the continued presence of Cuban doctors in hospitals in Calabria and present the development as an ongoing dispute between the region and US attempts to stop the scheme. Overall, the sources converge on the central point that the Cuban doctors remain at work in Calabria healthcare settings and that the US has been applying pressure to end the program, which Calabria has not followed.
