AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

US Sanctions on Cuba’s Tourism: The Trump administration expanded sanctions, blacklisting Cuba’s Ministry of Tourism (MINTUR) and nine more state-linked entities, aiming to cut off revenue and tighten pressure as hotels and tourism operations struggle amid fuel shortages and repeated blackouts. Energy Siege and Blackouts: Cuba’s grid has suffered another total disconnection, leaving millions without power, with the crisis tied to the near-stop in fuel imports and worsening nationwide outages. “Silent Gaza” at Home: A U.S. congressional delegation says sanctions are driving daily hardship—power cuts, fuel shortages, and disruptions to healthcare and food preservation—likening the situation to a “silent Gaza.” Diplomatic Tensions: Cuba’s leaders condemned the new measures as an attempt to “strangle” the economy, while Washington’s Marco Rubio renewed calls for political prisoners’ release. Human Rights—Luis Manuel Otero Alcántara: A Cuban dissident artist remains missing after State Security moved him from prison; Cubalex filed a habeas corpus petition demanding his whereabouts. US Claims on Iranian Drones in Cuba: Trump said the U.S. is investigating whether Iran stores drones on the island, warning it would act if confirmed. Business Pressure—Sherritt: Sherritt warned its Cuba-linked operations face constrained liquidity due to sanctions, seeking recapitalization to stabilize future activity.
