Executive summary
Cuba's medical mission to Grenada, formalized in 2017 under the Henry Reeve Contingent's Compensated Technical Assistance program, remains active with 100 personnel as of 2026, sustaining a presence dating back to 1980. Personnel figures have fluctuated notably—from 15 in 2016 to over 100 by 2025—without independent verification, raising questions about statistical consistency, compounded by documented obligations to alter medical statistics. Labor rights violations are extensively recorded, including forced enrollment (62%), surveillance (78%), and exploitation (85%), alongside salary retention exceeding 30% and coercive "Code of Ethics" agreements imposed after 2024 audits. Personnel were also obligated to undertake political actions within the host country. Behind clinical coats, an architecture of control persists. Even reform cannot erase decades of documented coercion.
