Recent discussions between Caribbean leaders and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio highlight rising tensions surrounding the Citizenship by Investment Program (CIP). Following accusations from the Trump administration about misuse of funds related to Cuban medical professionals in the region, several Caribbean nations, including Guyana and the Bahamas, are making changes to comply with U.S. demands. Despite previous travel restrictions being softened, concerns remain regarding potential new bans on travel, particularly affecting those involved in golden passport schemes, as the U.S. questions the integrity of applicant vetting processes in these nations.
The US and Western nations maintain that small Caribbean nations cannot adequately vet applicants for citizenship by investment programs, a claim that has been denied by regional leaders.
Following the recent threats from the Trump administration regarding travel bans, Caribbean nations are proactively amending payment systems for Cuban medical professionals to align with US demands.
