A Russian tanker carrying around 700,000 barrels of crude oil has arrived in the port of Matanzas, Cuba, breaking the U.S. blockade imposed by President Trump three months ago. Fuel shortages in Cuba have caused dayslong blackouts and have brought all sectors of the country to the brink of collapse.
The White House is claiming the arrival of the Russian tanker, unimpeded by the United States, does not signal a "formal change in sanction policy," and said U.S. decisions on shipments going forward would be made on a case-by-case basis.
"I think possibly what's going on is that the administration has begun to worry that their effort to strangle the economy could push the economy over the edge and generate a mass migration crisis," says William LeoGrande, professor of government at American University.
"Who is the United States? Who gave you the authorization to say how much oil is going into Cuba or not? This is illegal," adds Liz Oliva Fernández, a Cuban journalist with Belly of the Beast.
