U.S. Imposes Visa Restrictions Over Medical Care Violations

The United States Department of State announced on Wednesday a series of visa restrictions targeted at government officials from Africa, Cuba, and Grenada.

The measures are in response to allegations that these officials were involved in depriving the Cuban population of necessary medical care, according to the department's statement.

However, the department did not disclose the names of the officials impacted by these restrictions, leaving some ambiguity over those directly affected.
