Due to American sanctions brought in by the Trump government against any oil tanker companies shipping crude oil (usually from Venezuela, to Cuba), Cuba has been operating with only about 30% of their usual crude oil supply.
There's no fuel for tractors, and people in the country side are back to plowing with oxen. Some don't even have that, and food production has been curtailed in the whole island.
This is the inhumanity of this cruel man at the helm, affecting a whole nation. A good article at the Guardian.

The Tourism sector which is the island's lifeline, is also hurting.
@design_RG What's the reason for the policy?
@design_RG More interventionism. Ew.
Cuba's regime definitely needs to be toppled, but preferably not by a seige.
