AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Fuel and Energy: Cuban entrepreneurs are increasingly buying U.S. fuel as supplies from Venezuela dry up, even as Washington’s restrictions deepen the island’s energy crunch. A fire at the Santa Cruz thermoelectric plant and outages at other facilities are adding pressure. Currency Crisis: The informal dollar climbed to 805 pesos and the euro to 904, squeezing households already facing shortages. Repression: Cubalex documented 298 repressive incidents in September; nearly half affected prisoners, and families endured the year’s most severe prison communications blackout. U.S.-Cuba Tensions: Washington imposed new sanctions on Cuban state bank BICSA over financial links to Iran. Havana says oil restrictions hurt civilians and recent contacts have not produced serious dialogue. Humanitarian Strain: Cuba reported 883,446 people in vulnerable situations at the end of August, while doctors warn that dengue and other rising infections pose particular risks to immunocompromised and blood-disease patients.
