…The #Trump admin blamed what it said was the govt’s failure to manage its economy for Cuba’s #EnergyCrisis.
“The reason why they don’t have oil is because they don’t have any money to pay for oil,” Secy of State #Marco Rubio said in a March interview with NYT, in which he discounted the role of the #Trump admin’s #oil #blockade.
“The problem they’re facing is that usually when people give you oil, they expect to get paid for it,” he said. “And these guys have no money.”

…President Miguel Díaz-Canel acknowledged that the #energy situation was “particularly tense.”

The governments in Havana & Washington have been engaged in secret negotiations for weeks, with no signs of progress. For #Cuba, the goal is to end the #energy #blockade. For the #US, the talks are [purportedly] focused on ending the government’s grip on the economy & ending political repression [though in actuality it is on #RegimeChange & #US #WesternHemisphere control].

#Venezuela #fuel stopped flowing to #Cuba entirely in January, after the #US seized Venezuela’s leader and took control of Venezuela’s #oil industry. Later, the #Trump admin imposed an effective #blockade barring all foreign oil from reaching Cuba, which had also received shipments from #Mexico.

Cuba's oil reserves have run dry, its government said, potentially plunging the country into more debilitating #blackouts.
A long-running #EnergyCrisis in the island nation reached a breaking point this week, when government officials said they had run out of reserves.
This whole world runs on #FossilFuels, how stupid is that?

@gerrymcgovern I could cry when I see the accelerating #climateCrisis and more and more #drinkwater shortages while the US are on a race to destroy the world.
In Germany, they just stopped the plans of an US company building a big data center, because of the planned gas energy "support". May such protests grow globally!
