Mainstream news describe the economic situation is Cuba as extreme, see for example, this article by CNN: https://edition.cnn.com/2025/08/22/americas/cuba-crisis-energy-economy-intl-latam
Is that true? How to get a realistic account of the current situation in Cuba? Is United States blockade getting worse?
Edit. Added a mainstream source and re-stated my question in a more neutral tone.
If you use terms like “the liberal news”, you know you’re stuck in an echo chamber.
Might be time to ground yourself with today’s sponsor, Ground News.
It’s almost impossible to be “stuck in an echo chamber” when living in a Five Eyes country. Or rather, it’s almost impossible to not be stuck in the Five Eyes liberal echo chamber. You would have to go full Kaczynski, living in a shack in the woods.
Being completely honest, I’m tired of hearing about Ground News. Maybe I do want to hear about what liberals think of an issue. But I’m put off by the need to rub right-wing news in my face just to satisfy some fetish for being “centrist”.
