More than one million two hundred thousand documents legalized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MINREX) so far this year was a celebration for Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla.
"Since May, the legalizations have not exceeded the established 10-day period at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, thanks to the joint effort of workers and involved organizations," the minister wrote on his account on the social media platform X.
However, the numbers reaffirm the reality of the island, characterized by a continuous emigration of its workforce in search of better living conditions and professional development.
"And he sells it as a success, instead of understanding the monumental failure it shows. A country in stampede due to the terrible management of those who tyrannize it," responded Martí Noticias journalist Mario J. Pentón.
In the comments of the post made by Rodríguez Parrilla, other Cubans asked him if he had questioned why one million two hundred thousand documents have been legalized.
Since mid-2023, MINREX has acknowledged a delay in the legalization of documents due to the increase in demand for that service.
The massive migratory exodus has caused the collapse of notary offices in several provinces due to the increase in procedures such as powers of attorney, authorizations, and sales amidst the government's inability to effectively carry out the processes.
This year, the regime announced that it is studying the possibility of adhering to the Apostille Convention, an international convention that allows for up to 60% of documents to have legal effect outside the island without the need for legalization through a process.
