  • The nightly pot-banging protests in Cuba reflect an economy and dictatorship in collapse.
  • The lack of fuel, electricity, transportation, and shortages of food and medicines highlight the crisis.
  • The issues Cuba is suffering from are not the responsibility of the pressures deployed by the US, but of the Castroist leadership.
  • The dictatorship is increasingly isolated. With the war in Ukraine, Russia and China are less involved, plus the political changes in Latin America.
  • Negotiations between Washington and Havana could indicate a similar model to the one applied in Caracas, a non-democratic change.

Conclusion: Cuba is facing a profound crisis due to tyranny and bad decisions of its leadership, and although negotiations may indicate changes, they are likely not to be democratic.
