Cuban activist Rosa María Payá is urging the U.S. to maintain pressure on Cuba's communist government amidst worsening blackouts, food shortages, and protests. Payá appealed to former President Trump, stating that Cuba needs an end to the communist dictatorship to become great again. Cuba is experiencing an energy and economic crisis, exacerbated by fuel shortages after the Trump administration curtailed oil shipments, particularly from Venezuela. Cuban officials blame U.S. sanctions for the country's economic difficulties and energy instability. The Trump administration has increased pressure on Cuba by tightening sanctions and targeting oil shipments to weaken the government and support democratic change.
