Additionally, he reiterated that the energy crisis is exacerbated by “the intensification of the blockade against Cuba and our country’s inclusion on the list of state sponsors of terrorism.”

In a recent message to the Cuban people, President Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez addressed the ongoing electrical crisis affecting the nation. During his remarks, he highlighted the efforts being made to restore electricity following multiple outages.

“Since last night, after the third disconnection, a thorough analysis of various options and possibilities has been undertaken,” the president stated.

According to Díaz-Canel, thanks to the work of professionals, workers, and engineers within the national electric system, significant progress has been made: “Thirty-six percent of the service has been restored, and in the coming hours, we will continue to increase services to the population.”
