Episode Details

The Trump administration is escalating economic warfare against Cuba, slapping new sanctions on nine state-owned companies in critical sectors like mining and construction, while also targeting the leadership of Cuba’s ICAP institute for allegedly spreading Marxist ideology and influencing Americans. With an oil blockade crippling the island’s economy—causing blackouts, transport chaos, and medicine shortages—and tourism collapsing, U.S. officials frame these moves as national security measures.

The strategy aims to strangle Cuba’s finances and resist what Washington sees as foreign interference.
