Cuba's grid has been collapsing since 1993 — long before any Trump policy existed — so blaming USU.S. sanctions is pure regime propaganda. The communist government spent decades building luxury hotels for tourists while letting the power infrastructure rot, even passing Decree 110 to legally guarantee hotels electricity while Cuban families sat in 90-degree darkness for 72 hours. This crisis has one cause: 67 years of a regime that chose repression over its own people.
