Mainstream news describe the economic situation is Cuba as extreme, see for example, this article by CNN: https://edition.cnn.com/2025/08/22/americas/cuba-crisis-energy-economy-intl-latam
Is that true? How to get a realistic account of the current situation in Cuba? Is United States blockade getting worse?
Edit. Added a mainstream source and re-stated my question in a more neutral tone.
Are you suggesting CNN is liberal? Like, seriously?
From a political science perspective (and for most people outside the USA), most of the US has liberalist ideology, including Republican voters. The electoral system is called a liberal democracy. The country rallying cry is for “freedom”; liberty.
US mass media simply started calling progressive liberalism “liberalism”, conservative liberalism “conservativism”, and classical liberalism “libertarianism”. It’s silly and confusing, but it’s the world we’re in right now.

I’m sorry, I realize I was a bit ambiguous so please allow me to correct myself.
CNN is so fucking liberal. Better?
Do you snort it or take it in the arm?
