Mexico accused of financing Cuban regime by sponsoring 'slave' medical missions

Cuba spreads socialism by sending "doctors" to its allied countries, many of whom are reportedly members of the military and intelligence service of the dictatorship.
"I think this is something that is of most concern for U.S. national security. These medical missions have proven already to violate labor standards, to violate human rights and also to be used as operations for intelligence missions and potentially military missions," Joseph Humire, executive director of the Center for a Secure Free Society, told Fox News Digital.

Using Lopez Obrador's nickname, Humire said, "AMLO never admitted this, but it is pretty clear that if his political party, Morena, had won the midterms in Mexico, they would have tried to make reforms to the constitution, they would have tried to extend his presidency to another term, but since he was not able to achieve that, it seems that his focus has been on accelerating his strategic alliances with authoritarian actors both regional in Latin America and the Caribbean and extra-regional through China, Russia and Iran."
