Because of Trump, Cubans now prefer to flee to Brazil rather than Miami
- Trump wants to strip Cuban refugees of their special privileges and threatens to deport hundreds of thousands.
- So Cubans move to Curitiba, where they find work and easily obtain a residence permit.
- Curitiba now has a vibrant Cuban community, with Cubans working in the service sector in their own businesses.
Curitiba, the capital of a prosperous agricultural state, is becoming the new favorite destination for Cuban refugees as the U.S. under President Trump closes the door on them. They can find work, easily obtain residency, and life is affordable.
