Analysis of Cuba’s Current Economic Crisis 

“Cuba is going through the worst crisis it has experienced in decades, with widespread shortages of food and medicines, rolling blackouts and a sky-high 400% annual inflation rate. The calls on the communist leadership to open up the economy to the market are getting loud, even from close political allies.”[1] “But deep divisions at the top of the regime regarding how much freedom to give the new…

Neither bombs nor permanent aggression will be enough to break hope

Havana marches for Palestine

By Carmen Maturell Senon, Granma

The lords of war, which is the horror of the peoples, are indifferent to children, women and men; the human being. It is strange for them to become sensitive and end it in the face of so many deaths; that is why they continue to agonize what is not theirs, what is alive.

The more than seven decades of the Palestinian people resisting the onslaught of Zionist colonialism are not enough; nor are the lives taken from more than 42,000 people since October 2023. The offensive continues, and it hurts.

That is why, aware that solidarity knows no decoys or borders, and that to fight for Palestine is also to fight for humanity, a representation of the Cuban people marched through the streets of Havana, from the Martí Forge to the Anti-imperialist Tribune.

"Our solidarity and sensitivity with just causes summon us to the most anti-imperialist of the tribunes, to repudiate the massacre being committed against the people of Palestine and which is also intensifying against Lebanon, Syria and Yemen," expressed Meyvis Estévez Echevarría, first secretary of the National Committee of the Union of Young Communists.

In view of the vile scenario experienced by the Palestinian people, she affirmed that it is not a question of figures, that they are entire families martyred, disappeared, and that every time a person from that land is murdered, the shame of the world also dies.

"This march of thousands of Cubans, and the rallies that have been held in the country during these days, honor each life taken by Israel; in addition, it reaffirms the political will and commitment of the Cuban State with peace, justice and respect for national sovereignty," highlighted Meyvis Estévez.

The march was led by the First Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Cuba and President of the Republic, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, accompanied by members of the Political Bureau, Esteban Lazo Hernández, president of the National Assembly of People's Power and the Council of State, and Manuel Marrero Cruz, prime minister, as well as other leaders and representatives of political and mass organizations.

Just 90 miles from American shores, Cuba's struggle foreshadows an unsettling glimpse of the fragility we all face.

Oct 29, 2024

One week ago, all non-essential workplaces and schools in Cuba were closed. The idea was to send workers and students home in an effort to save energy, after the electrical grid collapsed, plunging the entire country into darkness.

In a televised address that presumably few could watch, Cuba’s Prime Minister — Manuel Marrero — told citizens the government had no choice but to “paralyze the economy,” after a perfect storm of circumstances (tropical storms, failing infrastructure, gas shortages, etc.) brought down the national grid.

In an effort to say something positive, Marrero announced the country is, “not yet in a bottomless abyss.”

Not yet.

That may or may not be comforting news to Maria Elena Cárdenas, a 76-year-old resident of old Havana who, as the Guardian reports, “has been cooking with sticks she had found on the street.”

It is hard to fathom conditions like this taking place just 90 miles off the coast of Key West. While Americans are in the grips of an election spectacle the likes of which have scarcely been seen before, we have hardly even noticed the third world conditions our Cuban neighbors have been living through.

Cuba’s leaders like to blame America and its long-standing embargo for the troubles. But there is no escaping reality. Eventually it catches up, and suddenly all the weight of the mismanagement of funds and poorly informed political decisions are laid bare for all to see.

For decades, Cuba was the darling of wannabe communists, with its cigar smoking charismatic leader, Fidel Castro, showcasing what sympathizers wanted to believe was the best of collectivism. In a hyper-romanticized fantasy, we were told Cuba was filled with happy citizens, homes for all, and free healthcare. (Sounds a bit like Canada, actually.)

Hurricane Oscar leaves at least six dead in Cuba

Six people have died in Cuba as a result of Hurricane Oscar, which hit the island on Sunday bringing winds and heavy rains and was downgraded to a tropical storm on Monday.

Cuba’s President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez wrote on X:

“There is an emergency situation in the municipalities of Imias and San Antonio del Sur. According to preliminary reports, six people have died in areas that have historically been arid.”

Mass blackouts across the Caribbean have sparked several small protests as the island prepares for a fourth night of mass blackouts and a stern government warns that any disturbances will be punished.

Several dozen people took part in protests in urban neighbourhoods such as Santos Suarez and downtown Havana. Some banged pots and pans in the streets, while others demonstrated from balconies.

Protesters, who said they had no water, littered at least one street with rubbish. Homemaker Mayde Quinones, 55, who cares for her mother-in-law, who is in her 80s, said:

“The country has completely halted. This hurts everyone, but the elderly most of all.”

Cuban Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz has declared a “state of energy emergency” due to the ongoing blackouts in the country. He and the country’s president, Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez, blamed the US for the energy crisis, saying sanctions and the blockade were limiting access to credit and spare parts for power plants.

As of Sunday evening, the capital Havana was completely plunged into darkness, with only some businesses, institutions, and homes running on their own localised fuel generators. The government cancelled classes in schools until Wednesday, citing the hurricane and the ongoing energy crisis. Officials said only essential services workers should go to work.

Two Wars, 50 Elections: The Economy Faces Rising Geopolitical Risks (NYT) The attacks on crucial shipping traffic in the Red Sea straits by a determined band of militants in Yemen a spillover from the Israeli-Hamas war in Gaza is injecting a new dose of instability into a world economy already struggling with mounting geopolitical tensions. The risk of escalating conflict in the Middle East is the latest in a string of unpredictable crises, including the Covid-19 pandemic and the war in Ukraine, that have landed like swipes of a bear claw on the global economy, smacking it off course and leaving scars. As if that weren’t enough, more volatility lies ahead in the form of a wave of national elections whose repercussions could be deep and long. More than two billion people in roughly 50 countries, including India, Indonesia, Mexico, South Africa, the United States and the 27 nations of the European Parliament, will head to the polls. Altogether, participants in 2024’s elections olympiad account for 60 percent of the world’s economic output.

In Campus Protests Over Gaza, Echoes of Outcry Over Vietnam (NYT) Richard Flacks remembers the challenges of building a protest movement during the Vietnam War as a pillar of the left-wing political and antiwar group Students for a Democratic Society during the 1960s. Sixty years later, Iman Abid sees similar challenges in the war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas. “For so long, we couldn’t get Palestine to be that issue for people to care about,” said Ms. Abid, the organizing and advocacy director at the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, which works with pro-Palestinian campus organizations. “But now people care about it because they’re seeing it. They’re watching it on their social media. They’re watching it on the news.” It is too early to know whether the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will define this generation as opposition to the Vietnam War did for many young people more than a half century ago. But to many who have studied or lived through the Vietnam era, the parallels to the Gaza protests are compelling: a powerful military raining aerial destruction on a small, underdeveloped nonwhite land; a generational divide over the morality of the conflict; a sense that the war represented far broader political and cultural currents; an unswerving confidence critics might say sanctimony among students that their cause is righteous.

Cuban government defends plans to either cut rations or increase prices (AP) The Cuban government said Friday it will have to either increase prices for fuel and electricity, or reduce rations for basic supplies. President Miguel Díaz-Canel said such difficult measures were needed for difficult times, after the minister of the economy said Cuba’s economy contracted between 1% and 2% this year, and inflation ran at about 30%. There were problems in the tourism industry Cuba’s main source of income and in farm production. Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz said that because of economic problems, the government will have to raise prices for gasoline, electricity and gas, or reduce the amount of food and other basics contained in government ration books.

Think your credit card rate is high? Some in Brazil pay 455 percent. (Washington Post) Ady Chaves opened her bank statement reluctantly. In the fine print of the lengthy credit card contract was the figure the 26-year-old preschool teacher had dreaded to learn: 455 percent. The annual percentage rate on her card from Nubank, one of many new branchless “digital banks” springing up in Brazil. That rate is the reason that the debt Chaves took on in summer 2022 to purchase classroom materials has ballooned to an amount she says her salary will never cover. It’s why she resorted to buying beans and rice on an installment plan. Why her credit is bad. Why she lost more than 10 pounds. Brazil has long suffered exorbitant interest rates. The average APR on a consumer credit card here is 431.6 percent, according to the Central Bank of Brazil a result of historically high inflation, a lack of regulation and limited competition in the banking sector. But as more Brazilians sought credit during the pandemic and subsequent recession, a new crop of lenders swooped in.

Russian shelling kills 4 as Ukraine prepares to observe Christmas on Dec. 25 for the first time (AP) Russian shelling in southern Ukraine’s Kherson region killed four people Sunday, including an 87-year-old man and his 81-year-old wife who died after a strike on their apartment building. The barrage injured nine other people, including a 15-year-old, sparked fires in homes and at a private medical facility, and set a local gas pipeline alight, the head of the regional military administration, Oleksandr Prokudin, said. “There are no holidays for the enemy,” Andrii Yermak, the head of the Ukrainian president’s office, wrote on social media, commenting on the Kherson attack. “They do not exist for us as long as the enemy kills our people and remains on our land.” The shelling across Kherson reached the center of the region’s capital city of the same name. The assault took place as Ukraine prepared to officially celebrate Christmas for the first time on Dec. 25, having previously marked the date on Jan. 7.

Bad air forces Pakistan to shut schools and markets and seed the clouds (Washington Post) Pakistani authorities are closing schools and markets and deploying artificial rain amid growing alarm over worsening levels of air pollution. Environmental activists say pollution levels are approaching or may have exceeded levels in the most polluted parts of neighboring India, where smog has for years practically paralyzed the capital of New Delhi during the winter months. Lahore, long known as Pakistan’s green “city of gardens,” has emerged as the country’s most polluted city. It now regularly tops global air pollution rankings, according to Swiss technology company IQAir, which tracks more than 7,000 cities around the world. Lahore’s 11 million residents may be losing more than seven years in average life expectancy due to poor air quality, according to a University of Chicago estimate.

Christmas in China brings glittering decor and foreign influence concerns (Reuters) Giant Christmas trees adorned with lights, tinsel and gift boxes greet shoppers at glittering malls in big Chinese cities like Shanghai and Chongqing, but in many parts of China, extending season’s greetings is out of the question. In southwest Yunnan province, a property management company issued a notice to shopping mall tenants urging them not to sell Christmas cards and presents and to even refrain from hanging decorations, saying foreign traditions should not be “blindly” followed, and one should be confident in one’s own culture. Schools in some cities from Dongguan in the south to Harbin in the northeast similarly called on students and parents not to follow foreign traditions and culture without thinking. In Gansu province in China’s northwest, a local branch of the Communist Youth League told its members to instead celebrate “The Battle at Lake Changjin”, a 2021 Chinese film depicting a fierce fight between the Chinese People’s Voluntary Army and U.S. forces during the Korean War. China does not ban Christianity or forbid Christian worship, but like all permitted religions, it must be strictly managed and governed amid concern about “foreign influences”.

Beijing sees most hours of sub-freezing temperatures in December since 1951 (AP) Beijing recorded the most hours of sub-freezing temperatures in December in more than seven decades as a cold wave has enveloped northern and central swathes of China, bringing snowstorms and record-breaking temperatures. A weather observatory in the Chinese capital as of Sunday had recorded more than 300 hours of sub-freezing temperatures since Dec. 11 the most since records began, in 1951, according to the official newspaper Beijing Daily. The city saw nine consecutive days with temperatures below minus 10 degrees Celsius (14 degrees Fahrenheit), the paper added. Parts of northern and central China have shivered under frigid cold snaps this month, with authorities closing schools and highways several times due to snowstorms.

With Israeli Raids in the West Bank, ‘There’s No Such Thing as Sleeping at Night’ (NYT) Mangled pipes poured sewer water into what remained of the road. On either side of the runoff were piles of broken pavement, churned up by bulldozers. The archway at the entrance to the neighborhood had been demolished; the gnarled hull of a black car sat nearby. Almost all of the residents of Jenin, a more than 70-year-old refugee camp turned neighborhood in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, had fled in recent weeks. Of the handful who remained, few dared venture out onto the street. They knew that at any moment the quiet could erupt in the paw-paw-paw of gunfire and the hissing hydraulics of bulldozers as Israeli security forces carried out a new raid. Since the Hamas-led terrorist attack on Israel on Oct. 7, the Jenin neighborhood long known as a bastion of armed resistance to the Israeli occupation has been a focal point of what Israeli officials describe as counterterrorism operations in the West Bank. Across the occupied territory, Israel has conducted near-nightly raids. In Jenin, it has done so every few days, sometimes twice a day, and has arrested at least 158 people, according to the Israeli authorities. Palestinian officials say at least 330 residents have been arrested and 67 people killed, including an 8-year-old child. “The new generation will come back stronger because of everything they are seeing now,” warned Salah Abu Shireen, 53, a local shopkeeper. “The war, the killing, the invasion, the raids it will all fuel even more resistance.”

Israel Says It Is Intensifying Its Campaign Against Hamas (NYT) Israeli leaders vowed on Sunday to pursue their war against Hamas, even as Israel’s own casualties mounted, with 15 soldiers reported killed in the Gaza Strip since Friday. “The war is exacting a very heavy cost from us,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told Israelis. “However, we have no choice but to continue to fight.” All but one of the 15 soldier deaths were on Friday and Saturday. Mr. Netanyahu said Israel was intensifying its campaign in Gaza. About 200 targets were hit over a 24-hour period, according to the military. Also on Sunday, the Gaza Health Ministry said dozens of people were killed in airstrikes in Al Maghazi, a neighborhood in central Gaza. “Our kids are in a state of unimaginable fear,” one resident said. “It’s a terrifying situation in every sense of the word.”

Xi meets Cuban prime minister, calling for further strategic coordination

BEIJING, Nov. 6 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday met with Cuban Prime Minister Manuel Marrero Cruz at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

Noting China and Cuba are good friends, good comrades, and good brothers, Xi said under the guidance and cultivation of the two countries' leaders, China and Cuba had worked hand in hand on the path of building socialism with their own characteristics, supported each other on issues concerning each other's core interests, and cooperated closely on international and regional issues, thus forging an unbreakable bond of trust and friendship.

Xi said China viewed and developed the special friendly relations between the two parties and countries from a strategic and overall perspective, adhered to the policy of long-term friendship between China and Cuba, and was willing to continue to deepen political mutual trust and strategic coordination with Cuba and carry out theoretical discussions and experience exchanges on party and state governance.

"China will continue to firmly support the Cuban people in opposing foreign interference and blockades and safeguarding national sovereignty and dignity," said Xi.

Mentioning the eight actions to support high-quality Belt and Road cooperation announced at the third Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, Xi said China welcomed Cuba's active synergy to further deepen and strengthen bilateral cooperation, especially in the fields of agriculture, tourism, health, science and technology, information and communication.

"It is hoped that Cuba will continue to make good use of important platforms such as the China International Import Expo (CIIE) to bring more specialty products to the Chinese market," said Xi.

Noting Cuba successfully hosted the summit of the Group of 77 and China in September this year, making important contributions to promoting solidarity and cooperation among developing countries, Xi said China is willing to work with Cuba to continue to jointly safeguard the sovereignty, security and development interests of developing countries.

While conveying cordial greetings from Comrade Raul Castro and Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel, Marrero expressed his pleasure to attend the 6th CIIE in China. He said through this visit, he had learned more deeply about the great achievements China had made in its development, adding President Xi's important thoughts on governance are of great inspiration and reference to Cuba and the world.

Cuba hopes to further strengthen solidarity and cooperation with China and firmly support each other, Marrero said, adding the country is willing to work with China to jointly build the Belt and Road with high quality, deepen practical cooperation in various fields, strengthen communication and coordination in international and regional affairs, oppose hegemony and bullying, and safeguard international fairness and justice.

Cuba thanks supporters for demonstrations of solidarity in the energy crisis

Havana, Oct 19 (Prensa Latina): Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez today expressed his gratitude for the displays of solidarity and support that the island has received following the disconnection of the National Electric Power System (SEN).

In his X account, the foreign minister expressed his appreciation for the voices denouncing the blockade imposed by the United States, “the main cause of the limitations and damage suffered by our people.”

Previously, on that social network, Rodríguez denounced that 18 days of economic, commercial and financial siege, are equivalent to the annual cost of maintaining the SEN.

The top representative of Cuban diplomacy stated that the damage suffered by this sector amounts to around 250 million dollars, not including the cost of fuel and investments.

“Bring down the blockade and there will be no blackouts; that way the United States government could support the Cuban people…, if it wanted to…” he stressed on the platform.

Through X, Prime Minister Manuel Marrero also expressed his gratitude to the nations that raised their voices in support and solidarity in the face of the current electrical energy situation and condemned the blockade.

The Caribbean country plans to increase power generation on Saturday with the entry into the system of thermoelectric plants, floating power plants and engines, the Ministry of Energy and Mines reported.

According to the director of Electricity of the portfolio, Lázaro Guerra, in the west the restoration of the SEN has already begun with the start-up of the Santa Cruz thermoelectric plant and work is being done to link the Mariel plant.

In an appearance on national television, he explained that the Energás plant is in service and is serving a load level in Havana and Mayabeque.

Guerra explained that in the central region of the country the microsystem remains stable and added that the recent disconnections of the SEN were influenced by the availability of fuel.

China welcomes Cuban PM’s visit

Chinese state media reports Chinese President Xi Jinping has met with Cuban Prime Minister Manuel Marrero at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

The leaders met after the Cuban leader signed co-operation documents with Xi’s deputy at a trade fair.

Marrero arrives in China at a time when Cuba’s economy, which relies heavily on imports of food, fuel and other goods, is close to collapse after a more than 50 per cent drop in export earnings needed to buy imported goods.

Dialogue is almost always a good thing.

In subtextual terms, “Cuba[n]” might indicate a destination, a transit point or a reference to Cigars, aka a Cube or Happy Cigarettes.
