Aug. 13 (UPI) -- The U.S. State Department on Wednesday imposed visa restrictions on foreign government officials accused of assisting the Cuban regime in a scheme exploiting medical professionals.
Officials from several African nations, Cuba and Grenada, as well as their families, were sanctioned, the State Department said in a news release.
"We are committed to ending this practice," Secretary of State Marco Rubio posted on X. "Countries who are complicit in this exploitative practice should think twice."
Rubio said "several" African nations were sanctioned. Marco and the news release didn't name that continent's countries or the officials involved there, as well as Cuba and Grenada.
