By blocking power to Cuba’s hospitals, the United States is guilty of committing a serious human rights abuse. Under Donald Trump’s leadership, America is becoming an international pariah. Diplomacy and engagement should be our strategy. NOT a blockade.

(Reuters) - Cuba has reconnected its electrical grid across much of the island, the Energy and Mines Ministry said early on Tuesday, just hours after U.S. President Donald Trump escalated his rhetoric against the communist-run island, saying he could do anything he wanted with Cuba. Cuba's national electric grid collapsed on Monday, leaving about 10 million people without power amid a U.S.-imposed oil blockade that has crippled the island's already obsolete generation system. Energy officials said they had reconnected the grid from westernmost Pinar del Rio province to Holguin, near the eastern tip of the island. Santiago de Cuba, the country's second-largest city, remained offline, the reports said. Electricity generation, hampered by fuel shortages and antiquated power plants, remains sharply depressed across the island despite grid recovery efforts, providing scarce relief for Cubans already exhausted from months of blackouts. Most Cubans, including those in the capital Havana, were seeing 16 or more hours of blackout daily even before the latest grid collapse, testing the patience of residents accustomed to hardship. "It affects every aspect of our lives," said Havana resident Carlos Montes de Oca, who said the outages had thrown simple necessities such as food and water supply into disarray. "All we can do is sit, wait, read a book... otherwise the stress gets to you."

It’s sickening that Trump seems to relish causing suffering and death in other countries, from Venezuela to Iran to Cuba. Our 60+ year embargo of Cuba is a disaster. It serves no purpose but to exploit everyday Cubans and use them, politically, in the most cruel, inhumane way.

CNN: Breaking news. Cuba's electrical grid has suffered a complete and total collapse. This is according to the country's power operator. It's the first nationwide blackout since the US effectively shut off the flow of oil to Cuba

Cuba has gone dark. Trump’s vindictive oil embargo – along with a sanctions regime that has starved Cuba of opportunities to develop its solar and wind – is depriving innocent Cuban citizens of basic necessities and creating a humanitarian crisis. Trump must end the embargo.

"An agreement could include a relaxation on Americans' ability to travel to Havana, an offramp for President Miguel Díaz-Canel, the Castro family remaining on the island and deals on ports, energy & tourism. The U.S. government has floated dropping some sanctions." @fran_chambers
