| > Cuba is being actively blockaded by the US False. This is a common point of confusion. There is no blockade on Cuba, only an embargo. You can research this yourself. A blockade in international law requires a physical naval presence that intercepts ships. It is literally an act of war. The US is not intercepting ships that travel to Cuba. The US maintains an embargo on Cuba, not a blockade. See https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/world/americas/cuba-russi... > The United States Coast Guard is allowing a Russian tanker full of crude oil to reach Cuba > Asked by reporters about this article on Air Force One Sunday evening, President Trump confirmed it. “We don’t mind having somebody get a boatload, because they need — they have to survive,” he said. “I told them, if a country wants to send some oil into Cuba right now, I have no problem with that. Whether it’s Russia or not.” The tanker in question successfully reached and delivered its cargo to Cuba. The current energy crisis in Cuba is a result of the collapse of the Maduro regime, which was providing billions of dollars of free oil to Cuba. |
