Cuba pulls security and medical staff from Venezuela after U.S. pressure and a deadly raid that killed 32 Cuban personnel.
Cuban security and medical personnel are withdrawing from Venezuela amid intensified U.S. pressure on interim President Delcy Rodríguez to end the decades-long alliance with Havana.
The move follows a January 3 U.S. military operation that captured former President Nicolás Maduro and killed 32 Cuban personnel, prompting Rodríguez to shift security duties to Venezuelan bodyguards.
Cuban advisers, previously embedded in Venezuela’s military and intelligence units, have been removed from key roles, though the reasons for their departure remain unclear.
The U.S. has blocked Venezuelan oil shipments to Cuba and urged Rodríguez to sever ties, while both governments publicly maintain their alliance, with Rodríguez and Cuban leaders expressing solidarity.
The future of the relationship remains uncertain.
