Cuba is experiencing a severe energy crisis exacerbated by a tightening U. S. blockade, according to reports. The island's power grid has severely deteriorated, leading to blackouts lasting up to 20 hours per day, particularly in Havana, and these outages may continue for weeks, with no clear timeline for restoration. Venezuelan political commentator Eduardo Menoni highlighted the complete collapse of the electrical system in Havana.
The energy crisis is compounded by halted crude oil shipments from Venezuela, Cuba's primary supplier. Mexico has stepped in to provide some oil, but this support is under scrutiny due to U. S. pressure. Cuba's ambassador to Colombia noted that U. S. threats have intensified, creating significant economic challenges for the island. Former President Trump's recent statements also reflect a dire outlook for Cuba's economic stability.
