Despite the constant requests for patience and resistance that Minister Manuel Marrero makes to the people of Cuba, his family seems to have no faith in his words, since his nieces decided to emigrate to the United States to enjoy a life of luxury.
According to information shared by several media outlets, one of the official’s nieces, Giselle Selcis Marrero, requested asylum across the border in 2022, while her sister, Lorena Selcis Marrero, arrived last year thanks to the parole humanitarian.
While at first glance the young women may seem like part of the mass exodus of Cubans, the truth is that the minister’s nieces have always had connections with influential figures in Cuba.
Marrero has been Prime Minister of Cuba since December 2019, this after a long 15-year career at the head of the Ministry of Tourism. He is directly linked to the GAESA business group, which plays an important role in the country’s economy.
As a consequence, the Selcis Marrero sisters always grew up in an environment of privileges that not everyone on the Island knows about, however, these luxuries thanks to their uncle’s positions seem not to have been enough to prevent them from emigrating to the United States in search of a good life. life, as thousands of Antilleans have done in the midst of one of the worst economic crises in the country’s history.
The mother of the young women is Tamara Marrero Cruz, sister of the minister, who is known on social networks for her activism in favor of the regime and her links with Tourism in Cuba.
Their father resides in the United States, and would have been the one who was placed as a sponsor to allow one of them to enter the country with this immigration benefit.
On social networks, Marrero’s nieces seemed to have no problem boasting about the type of life they led on the Island, this despite the constant speech given by their uncle which assures that Castro officials go through the same difficulties as the rest of the population. .
Their profiles were filled with photographs and videos of visits to luxury hotels in Cuba, as well as trips abroad and a refined lifestyle.
Now, in the United States, they continue to have a similar style, showing off hobbies such as golf, luxury restaurants and they assure that they have achieved everything with their own efforts and not with the help of their relationship with the leadership.
This is not the first time that a member of Marrero’s family has gotten into trouble for showing off his luxurious lifestyle on social networks, since years ago, the official’s son, Manuel Alejandro Marrero Medina, was in the eye of the independent press. after images of him traveling were leaked on one of the private jets intended for the use of the designated president Miguel Díaz-Canel, Raúl Castro and other high officials.
