Cuba on the Brink: Hope and Uncertainty in South Florida and Havana - Exiled Cubans in South Florida are optimistic about potential changes in their homeland, following President Trumps statement that Cuba is struggling due to oil shipment cuts from Venezuela. The islands power grid is failing, causing blackouts and shortages, and fuel scarcity is disrupting daily life. In Miamis large Cuban American community, excitement is high for rebuilding through investments and new democratic groups. However, experts emphasize the need for political reforms and free elections before economic fixes, as over one thousand political prisoners remain.
