US Blocks Russian Oil to Cuba, Sparking Outrage and Accusations of War
The U.S. Treasury Department has blocked Cuba from receiving Russian crude oil, despite two tankers carrying such fuel heading to the island. This action follows a temporary authorization for Cuba to purchase stranded Russian oil, intended to stabilize energy markets amidst international conflict. The move exacerbates Cuba’s ongoing energy crisis and economic hardship, a situation Russia has pledged to support.
