Cuba is in crisis. If you want to do more than complain on X, these American organizations are on the ground, getting aid and opportunity directly to the Cuban people. Your support matters more than ever. 🤝 Humanitarian aid: Friends of Caritas Cuba: friendsofcaritascubana.org, Catholic Relief Services: crs.org/where-we-work/…, Order of Malta: ordendemaltacuba.org, Catholic Charities of Miami: ccadm.org 📈 Economic empowerment: Cuba Emprende has trained 12,000+ entrepreneurs since 2012 and has a waiting list for every single class. Help them scale: cubaemprendefoundation.org All are U.S. law-compliant and not a dollar donated touches Cuban state banks.

“The Treasury Department added Cuba to a list of countries restricted from taking delivery of Russian oil after a tanker of the fuel appeared to be headed to the island, which is under a US naval blockade.” - ⁦@businessbloomberg.com/news/articles/…

Dudoso que haya sido “clandestinamente”. Hablar de un “bloqueo petrolero” confunde la política de EE.UU. Bajo “Donroe,” que Washington controle, o permita, lo que entra o sale como punto de presión para ganar ventaja en su diálogo con La Habana no es lo mismo que bloquearlo todo.

📌Durante la llamada “Revolución Energética” (2006–2008), casi 1 de cada 5 pesos de inversión del país se destinó a electricidad, gas y agua (aproximadamente un 20 %). 📌Después, ese porcentaje bajó a 12–15 %, y en los años más duros de la crisis reciente (2020, 2022, 2023) cayó por debajo del 10 %. 📌Mientras, el turismo… - En los 90 y 2000, absorbía 15–17 % de la inversión total. - A partir de 2015 comenzó a crecer fuerte: Por ejemplo en el 2020 fue de 47,6 %, casi la mitad de toda la inversión del país. Ese mismo año, electricidad, gas y agua recibieron solo 9,4 %. 📌El problema no ha sido la falta de inversión, sino en qué se ha concentrado. Incluso en los años de crisis económica más profunda (2019–2024), el Gobierno mantuvo un alto esfuerzo inversor, pero concentró gran parte en el turismo. 🎯 El próximo 24 de marzo lanzaremos el segundo informe de Cuba Study Group junto al economista Ricardo Torres, esta vez enfocado en la crisis energética en Cuba.

A true economic opening, as understood by any serious investor in the world, implies rule of law and judicial reform.
Ramsey@rancelr23

@ric23 opening the economy means nothing without rule of law. Cuba needs deep judicial reform: independent courts, clear commercial codes, and legal protections guaranteeing investors won’t face criminal charges for basic market decisions like adjusting prices

Regardless of what Trump does or who governs Cuba next, one fact is unshakable: Cuba must open its economy.

Sec. Rubio said measures announced by #Cuba on Monday to allow Cubans living abroad to own private businesses on the island are not “dramatic enough” to fix the country’s dire economic problems and that the country needs “new people” in charge. #storylink=cpy" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">miamiherald.com/news/nation-wo…

Roger Stone@RogerJStoneJr

@RepCarlos You talk a lot and do little. To you, the Anti-Castro movement is a racket in which you fill your pockets with campaign contributions but nothing ever changes. You're too busy taking bribes.

A deal in which El Cangrejo “steers the government” behind the scenes, with U.S. support, while a newly chosen figurehead holds office would be a deeply “through-the-looking-glass” outcome. One that shifts the center of gravity away from the Party and toward military and intelligence networks. Say what you will about PCC rule, it confers a degree of political legitimacy to anyone “que no bajó de la Sierra.” Many on both sides of the Florida Straits will find this hard to stomach, for varying reasons. Managing the politics of all this will be no small task.

NEW from @nytimes: The Trump administration is seeking to oust the president of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel, in its talks with Cuban political leaders. The Americans plan to allow the Castro family to keep power if they agree to economic changes, creating a client state for the US.

When an entire country loses electricity, countless preventable deaths follow—because a doctor can’t arrive in time, because of complications during childbirth that would have required surgery, or because dialysis machines stop working. Cuba is now facing exactly that situation.
