Russian immigration enforcement involving Cuban nationals

Overview

Russian authorities have taken actions against Cuban nationals involving both criminal deportations and immigration detentions. In one instance, two Cuban men were deported to Cuba after serving prison sentences for violent sexual acts and aggravated illegal possession of narcotics. Authorities deemed their presence in Russia “undesirable” and issued long-term re-entry bans.

In a separate case, a pregnant Cuban woman was detained in Pervouralsk for having an expired migration card and lacking a valid work permit. Despite being near her expected delivery date, she was transferred to a detention center in Ekaterinburg. Her legal counsel and partner have raised concerns regarding her health and the facility's suitability for childbirth, seeking intervention from the Ombudsperson for the Sverdlovsk region to prevent her deportation.
