Quick Summary

Cuba is facing increasing isolation from the global economy due to tough new U.S. sanctions imposed by the Trump administration. These measures aim to pressure Cuba's ruling communist government, which has been in power and under a U.S. trade embargo for decades. As a result, basic goods are becoming scarce and unaffordable for many Cubans.
