šØ BREAKING: Trump Issues Sharp Ultimatum to Cuba ā Oil & Money Cut Off Unless They āMake a Dealā šŗšøšØšŗ
What Just Happened?
In a major escalation of U.S.āCuba relations, President Donald Trump has publicly warned the Cuban government that Venezuelan oil shipments and financial support will be fully cut off unless Havana agrees to a deal with Washington ābefore it is too late.ā Trump made the remarks in a Truth Social post, declaring:
āTHERE WILL BE NO MORE OIL OR MONEY GOING TO CUBA ā ZERO!ā and strongly urging Cuban leaders to negotiate. (thenationalnews.com)
This dramatic move comes after U.S. forces captured Venezuelan President NicolĆ”s Maduro and seized Venezuelan oil shipments, severely disrupting Cubaās primary source of fuel. (News24)
š Why This Matters ā Breaking Down the Geopolitical Shift
š¹ 1. Cubaās Energy Lifeline Has Been Cut
For decades, Venezuela supplied roughly half of Cubaās oil under heavily subsidized terms ā a cornerstone of the two countriesā close alliance. With U.S. actions disrupting those shipments and controlling Venezuelan oil exports, Cuba now faces a deepening energy crisis. (thenationalnews.com)
The sheer scale of this shift cannot be understated: fossil fuel shortages already contribute to widespread power outages and economic strain across the island. Without Venezuelan oil, Cubaās fragile infrastructure could deteriorate further. (scmp.com)
š¹ 2. Trump Frames Cuba as Needing a āDealā
Trumpās messaging goes beyond economics ā heās signaling a strategic realignment:
ā”ļø Cuba must negotiate with the U.S. to receive future oil or financial support. (thenationalnews.com)
ā”ļø The White House suggests Cubaās longstanding alliance with Venezuela no longer serves Havanaās interests. (The Times of India)
