Cuba’s government has spent the last days attempting to get the island’s national grid functioning after repeated island-wide blackouts. Without power, sleep becomes difficult in the heat, food spoils and the water supply fails.
Parts of Cuba’s communist system still function: the municipality sent Maria food. “We are three families here,” she said. “I live alone, the lady who lives next to me [does] also, and there are two children, the children’s mother, her aunt and an elderly man.”
A week after the blackout, the island has returned to the status quo ante with regular power cuts of up to 20 hours a day. But the crisis has left a deep, melancholy dread about the future.
It’s not just an embargo, it’s a criminal blockade that every UN country except the US, Israel and Ukraine has agreed should end.
You’d think Ukraine would have some charity towards another oppressed state. I guess money speaks louder.
Survival speaks louder. Ukraine doesn’t exist without the US.
I wouldn’t say that.
They fought off the initial assault themselves, they had some javelins and such, but nothing serious.
Remember, Ukraine was the only functional part of the Soviet union, they grew all the food, invented their nukes and weapons, they were massive.
I still wouldn’t blame them for sucking up to the US in their current situation. Them and Israel basically rely on the US for their weapons. The US is who I blame most of those 3 because they have the most power to stop it without relying on anyone else for survival.
I blame the US for not giving Ukraine such overwhelming weaponry that they dominated, killed every worthless Russian on ukrainian soil and made them fear for their own existence.
Invaders must die.

Can we ban this Russian troll?
No u

Touch some grass, smoothbrain.
The US, Israel and Ukraine can get fucked. Other countries should ignore their bull shit bullying and help Cuba. The US and Israel and international bullies and have gotten thousands killed.

Actually I’m just aware of history. And I wasn’t even talking about Russia, you illiterate boob. Pick up a book. It’s not difficult. The US has done a great job meddling in many, many countries over the last 80 years - common knowledge that’s easy to come by. PS Putin is a tool and since the only person having sus behavior here is you, stop muddying the waters. If anything, you’re an Israeli misinformation bot
