Cubas blockt die Einfuhr von Benzin in das Botschaftsgebäude der USA im Rahmen einer Energiekrise
On March 21, Cuban authorities halted the import of gasoline and other fuels destined specifically for the U.S. Embassy in Havana due to a severe national shortage that has left many citizens without access to essential services like electricity or heating. While officials from Cuba argue these privileges are "unfounded," Washington insists on securing diesel supplies immediately so it can continue operating its mission, which is currently running solely off-grid generators and facing potential shutdowns if fuel runs out by the end of March 2017.
