Russia Defies US Blockade, Sends Oil and Gas to Cuba
As Cuba faces an escalating energy crisis, intensified by a U.S. oil blockade, two Russian tankers carrying vital oil and gas shipments have been dispatched to the island. These vessels represent the Caribbean nation’s first energy deliveries in three months, aiming to alleviate widespread blackouts and disruptions to essential services. The Sea Horse, carrying approximately 27,000 tons of gas, is expected to arrive shortly, followed by the Anatoly Kolodkin, loaded with over 700,000 barrels of oil, in early April.
