Trump Vows to ‘Take’ Cuba Amidst Embargo Crisis

Cuba is experiencing a total power blackout and growing anti-government protests amid a U.S. oil embargo. The island nation’s national energy grid has collapsed, deepening shortages and impacting essential services. Former President Trump vowed to “take” Cuba and issued threats to the country during remarks to reporters. He previously imposed the oil embargo, which is contributing to the current crisis. The fuel shortages have led the government to ration petrol sales and limit some hospital services. The president stated he “could do anything” with the island nation. The blackout marks a significant escalation of difficulties for Cuba, already facing economic hardship.
