00:00 Every year they put this regulation on doctors, nurses,
00:06 everyone, everyone, so that they are clear,
00:11 everyone who works in the secondary care,
00:14 say nurse, say the one who cleans the floor,
00:18 say everyone who works in the secondary care,
00:21 is regulated by the Cuban public health system.
00:24 It is regulated that you cannot take out your passport.
00:27 There is a system,
00:31 there is a system that they have with a red line,
00:35 with a red line and you are regulated.
00:38 Now, how does the mechanism work?
00:40 Everyone who is inside knows what I'm saying,
00:43 they know how it works, what I repeat,
00:45 many do not have the balls to go out and report this on the networks,
00:49 because they think, they think that if they stay silent,
00:53 at a certain moment they will remove the regulation and they will be able to go out.
00:57 That will not happen, ok? That will not happen.
01:00 If everyone in mass, if everyone in mass agrees
01:04 and goes out to report to the networks that they are slaves,
01:07 that they are regulated, that they cannot take out their passport,
01:11 that this is a violation of human rights,
01:14 every human being on the planet has the right to travel freely,
01:19 ok? And to emigrate wherever they want to emigrate.
01:22 They have the right to take out their passport, this is stipulated in human rights.
01:25 Well, the health care doctor in Cuba does not have human rights,
01:30 all human rights are censored.
01:34 So, if you do not agree and do not go out to the networks to claim this right,
01:39 well, of course, no one is going to claim it for you and you are going to continue to be imprisoned there,
01:43 because for that doctor, for that doctor to be able to go on vacation to another country,
01:52 say Punta Cana, go to the beach, he has to ask permission from the head of service,
01:58 the head of service to process it to the director of the hospital,
02:02 the director of the hospital to process it to the provincial health directorate
02:06 and the provincial health directorate to the national directorate.
02:09 So many things so that you get permission to say you can go to Punta Cana on the next vacation.
02:15 So that's where the doubts of those who are outside come from.
02:21 Ok? If you left Cuba for this day,
02:25 that you asked permission to go on vacation, that you went to Punta Cana and grabbed and stayed,
02:32 because it was out of the eggs to run away from that dictatorship,
02:37 well then, and you did not ask for the low in the Cuban public health system,
02:42 if you come back in, you will not be allowed to leave.
02:46 So that you are clear, because Cuba is the only country in the world,
02:51 to get into context, Cuba is the only country in the world that does not respect or recognize dual nationality.
02:59 You can be an American citizen, you can be a European citizen,
03:04 you can be a citizen of the country that you are.
03:07 You are still a Cuban citizen for the regime.
03:11 And when you enter that country, if you did not ask for the low in public health,
03:16 if you do not have a paper that says that you do not belong to public health,
03:20 you, when you enter, it may have been 20 years that you are still a Cuban citizen
03:26 and the regime will say that you are regulated and you cannot leave the country.
03:31 Then they will leave you locked up in there.
03:34 That's what there is, so that they know, because if I go, no, no, no,
03:38 if you went on vacation, if you were on a mission and deserted,
03:45 and they put you in the 8 years without Vaseline, without being able to enter Cuba.
03:50 The 8 years have passed, you remained quiet here in the United States,
03:54 in 8 years you made the residence, you made the citizenship,
03:58 you are an American citizen because 8 years have passed without the dictatorship
04:02 letting you enter Cuba, but you were quiet here without saying anything.
04:06 For that very reason, so as not to get into politics, so as not to,
04:10 as many think, when you enter that country, already being an American citizen,
04:16 and you, as you deserted on a mission, you deserted on the mission,
04:21 you are still part of, you have your rent, rented there,
04:29 there inside Cuba, you have your rent, which you left there,
04:33 and when you enter, even if you are an American citizen,
04:36 you will be put the rent again and they will say,
04:39 you are still a Cuban citizen and you are regulated here in the system.
04:43 And the United States cannot get involved in that, because I repeat,
04:47 when the United States claims for an American citizen,
04:50 no, he is a Cuban citizen and we do not recognize American citizenship.
04:54 Because the only country in the world that does not recognize the double nationality is Cuba.
04:59 So then, you know more or less where the shot goes,
05:04 of this that has been years, since I was in Cuba I have been claiming it,
05:10 it is more, it is more, to me, to me, to my person,
05:14 when I was expelled from health in Cuba, I was expelled from health,
05:18 I was in a hospital, I was in urology, I was in secondary care,
05:24 I was regulated, I could not get my passport, ok?
05:29 I complained about this a thousand times, a lot of times,
05:32 "Hey, stay quiet, so maybe they will take you away from them."
05:35 If you stay quiet, it's worse, brother, if you stay quiet, it's worse,
05:39 because then they start to bully you, and then when you go to ask for the base,
05:44 they don't want to give it to you either, go out to claim, go out to claim your rights,
05:48 in front of the party, in the networks, in the street, wherever you want,
05:53 ask for the base and it will not go, but go out to claim it,
05:56 so that it becomes visible and so that the world sees the dictatorship with the doctors that are in Cuba,
06:02 with their slaves.
06:04 So, because if not, if not, what is going to happen, what is going to come.
06:10 What the doctor is, that's true, that's true.
06:14 He was from Chile, five years in Chile, he went to Cuba and they didn't let him out, that's true.
06:20 And it was known because it came out in the networks, it came out to claim,
06:24 but there are thousands of cases that have happened to him,
06:27 and they are quiet in there to see if they can go out again.
06:30 So, you have to understand this, if you don't claim your rights,
06:36 as a citizen, as a human being, no one is going to claim it for you.
06:41 What one does here outside is to make visible the problems that are inside Cuba,
06:48 that many due to repression, fear, etc., remain silent.
06:53 It is to make visible, but we cannot do anything about it,
06:57 because what can one do from outside? Nothing.
