Cuba’s Economic Crisis: Fuel Shortages, Blackouts, and New U.S. Sanctions | Your Morning

Six months after new U.S. executive orders cut off key oil supplies, Cuba is facing one of its most challenging periods in recent history. The country continues to struggle with severe fuel shortages, prolonged blackouts, and rising food insecurity. In response, the Cuban government is implementing major economic reforms, attempting to open up parts of its traditional state-run economy to survive the pressure. We are joined by Julio Fonseca, Co-Chair of the Canadian Network on Cuba, to discuss the humanitarian impact of these U.S. sanctions and what these radical economic shifts mean for the future of the island and its people. #Cuba #CubaNews #InternationalRelations #EconomicReform #Sanctions #HumanitarianCrisis #Geopolitics #CubaCrisis #WorldNews #FuelShortage #CubaEnergy Subscribe to Your Morning for the latest: http://bit.ly/2hX11GF Connect with Your Morning: https://www.ctv.ca/shows/your-morning Follow Your Morning on TikTok:   / yourmorningctv   Start YOUR MORNING with us.
