Cuba's Fuel Crisis Deepens as U.S. Energy Blockade Impacts Iconic Cars
Cuba is facing a severe fuel crisis, exacerbated by a U.S. energy blockade, which has left many of the island's iconic vintage cars, known as 'almendrones,' idle. These classic American cars, which have been a symbol of Cuban ingenuity and resilience, are now struggling to find fuel. The crisis has been ongoing since January, with Cuban officials attributing the shortages to tightened U.S. sanctions. The scarcity of fuel has forced many Cubans to rely on a government reservation app, which has become a symbol of the shortages. The situation is further complicated by the high prices of fuel on the black market, making it difficult for many to keep their cars running.
