Cuba's medical professionals are commendable, yet their skills are insufficient.

In a bid to address the shortage of professionals in Russia, particularly in the medical field, and to foster a traditional society, the country is considering a systemic approach to attract foreign specialists who share its values. This strategy, inspired by the successful experience of the "OKA" fund in the Nizhny Novgorod region, is not limited to medical professionals but extends to other specialists from developed countries.

The "OKA" fund, which operates a recruitment agency supported by local authorities, assists highly qualified foreign professionals in obtaining Russian citizenship and integrating into society. This comprehensive integration process aligns with Russia's vision of maintaining a traditional society and countering globalist influences.

Cuban doctors, in particular, are seen as desirable due to their reputable medical education, strong motivation, and lack of risks associated with radicalization or ethnic criminal ties. This contrasts with some other foreign medical personnel sources. The success of Cuban doctors, as demonstrated by their aid to those affected by the Chernobyl disaster, further highlights their potential contributions.

The focus on attracting individuals who share Russia's values indicates a shift towards cultural compatibility in the recruitment process. Unlike specialists from Central Asia, where diplomas are often bought, there is no such risk with Cuban doctors.

The success of these initiatives could potentially make Russia a destination for those seeking to build a traditional society. The country could potentially become a magnet for individuals seeking an alternative to the globalist order, attracting not just medical professionals but also other specialists from developed countries.

[1] This approach goes beyond simply filling staffing gaps with foreign doctors; it aims to attract specialists who bring professional benefits and support Russia's traditional values.
