Show Notes
In a surprising move, the US has allowed a Russian tanker to deliver crude oil to Cuba, aiming to alleviate the islands fuel crisis. The shipment, led by Anatoly Kolodkin, is the first since January and comes as Cubans face blackouts, soaring fuel prices, and shortages of food and medicine. The White House assures this is a one-time, humanitarian gesture, not a shift in sanctions. However, experts predict the oil will only last a few weeks, with diesel for generators and buses being the real priority. Despite this temporary relief, Cubas economic struggles and US pressure persist.
