Health and disaster-response cooperation gave way to diplomatic friction and reduced cooperation after Ecuador’s 2019 policy shift.
Cuba hacia Ecuador
+20Cuba sent medical assistance to Ecuador after the 2016 earthquake and supplied medical personnel under bilateral health cooperation. These actions were followed by a deterioration in relations when Ecuador ended the medical arrangement and expelled Cuban diplomats in 2019.
Ecuador hacia Cuba
+10Ecuador cooperated with Cuba on health, including the presence of Cuban medical personnel during Rafael Correa’s presidency. In 2019, Ecuador ended the medical cooperation arrangement and expelled Cuban diplomats, reflecting a marked shift in policy.
Relación general
+15The relationship includes concrete health cooperation and Cuban disaster assistance, but the 2019 termination of medical cooperation and expulsion of Cuban diplomats marked a significant setback. Earlier cooperation prevents the bilateral relationship from being characterized solely by confrontation, while the later policy shift limits the extent of sustained partnership.
