The characters from the Cuban comedy show Vivir del Cuento have begun a collaboration with the United States Embassy in Cuba to provide information about the specifics and requirements for legally emigrating to that country.
This is a campaign organized by the diplomatic mission to explain the various ways in which Cubans can legally access U.S. territory, while also attempting to prevent illegal emigration, whether by sea or land.
"Here’s a sneak peek of the campaign: 'Legally migrate to the U.S.!' Pánfilo, Chequera, and Isidoro cleared up all their doubts about immigration with 'someone very well-informed,'" announced the embassy on its social media.
"Don't miss these videos. Every Thursday at 11:00," the post specified.
In the promotional video, the three characters can be seen asking questions about the various visas for visiting, the differences between USCIS and the consular section, and the criminal record documentation required for the interviews.
"It's a pleasure to be able to help your friends not make the same mistakes time and again," said the official, named Adam.
Once again, the United States has chosen Vivir del Cuento, the most popular program on Cuban television, to create a video on a topic related to both countries.
In 2016, when Barack Obama went to Cuba, the then-president "visited" Pánfilo's house and played dominoes with him, Chequera, and Facundo.
During the meeting between the president and the comedians, Obama thanked the Cuban people for their hospitality and the expressions of affection shown to him and his family during their intense and historic three-day stay on the Island.
"It has been excellent; the people have been wonderful. The food has been outstanding, the music... The Cubans have treated my family very well. I am very grateful and happy to have made this trip," he said then.
"I just want to express how much I appreciate the time I spent with you all. And please, tell the Cuban people, all your friends and family, how much we value this visit," the Democratic leader added before concluding with a "See you soon. Thank you," in Spanish.
