🤔 A country with more than 11 million people but almost running out of fuel and losing electricity up to 22 hours a day, is this just an energy crisis or a sign of Cuba's biggest regime crisis in decades?
Cuba is going through one of the most difficult periods since the "Special Period" in the 1990s. The power system continuously collapsed, fuel sources were almost exhausted, traffic stagnated, production declined and a wave of social discontent began to appear in many areas of Havana.
The direct cause comes from Cuba losing its strategic oil source from Venezuela after the political upheavals in early 2026. At the same time, the Donald Trump administration implemented a policy of tightening energy with Cuba through measures to put pressure on countries or businesses transporting oil to this island nation.
According to many international reports, Cuba needs about 100,000 barrels of oil per day to operate the national power grid, transportation and basic economic activities. However, domestic output only meets about 40%.
📊 CUBA ENERGY BALANCE SHEET
Category Data
Daily oil demand About 100,000 barrels
Domestic production About 40,000 barrels
Autonomy rate About 40%
Import dependence About 60%
Power outage time in many areas Up to 20 - 22 hours per day
Former main source of supply was Venezuela
📉 WHEN OIL DISAPPEARS THE ENTIRE SYSTEM STARTS TO COLLAPSE
The crisis is not just about electricity shortages.
When fuel runs out, a series of sectors are affected.
🔋 Power plants reduce capacity
🚍 Public buses must reduce trips
🏥 The hospital is having difficulty operating
🚛 Garbage collection trucks stopped working
🌾 Agricultural harvest stagnated
🏨 Tourism continues to weaken
The United Nations has warned that fuel shortages are directly threatening clean water systems, health care and food security in Cuba.
📊 DIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACT
Field Level of influence
Electricity Very serious
Serious Travel
Serious Agriculture
High Health
High Traffic
High Logistics
High public service
🔥 SERIES OF PROTESTS APPEARED
In Havana, many people took to the streets to protest the prolonged power outage.
The protests saw people banging pots and pans, burning trash and demanding the government restore electricity. Some areas only hope to have a few hours of electricity per day for normal activities.
Notably, this is a level of social discontent rarely seen in Cuba in recent years.
🌎 THE US IS USING ENERGY AS A GEOPOLITICAL WEAPON
Many experts believe that Washington is applying the same pressure model it used on Iran and Venezuela.
Instead of direct military intervention, controlling fuel sources caused the entire Cuban economy to be strangled from within.
According to Reuters and international organizations, most traditional oil suppliers are currently concerned about the risk of sanctions if they continue to export oil to Cuba.
📊 ENERGY DEPENDENT COMPARISON
Country Level of dependence on oil imports
Cuba Very high
Venezuela Low
Mexican Average
US Much lower thanks to large domestic output
💰 ECONOMIC DAMAGE IS DIFFICULT TO MEASURE
If we take the international oil price around 90 USD per barrel, the oil shortage is about 60,000 barrels per day, equivalent to more than:
💵 Khoảng 5,4 triệu USD mỗi ngày
💵 Khoảng 135 triệu VND mỗi giờ
💵 Hơn 4.000 tỷ VND mỗi tháng quy đổi theo giá dầu hiện nay
Con số này chưa bao gồm thiệt hại từ du lịch, sản xuất, nông nghiệp và suy giảm đầu tư.
🇷🇺 NGA TRỞ THÀNH PHAO CỨU SINH CUỐI CÙNG
Trong lúc nhiều nguồn cung bị cắt giảm, Nga đã điều tàu chở khoảng 100.000 tấn dầu tới Cuba.
Lượng dầu này được đánh giá chỉ đủ hỗ trợ nhu cầu năng lượng của Cuba trong khoảng gần hai tuần nếu sử dụng ở mức bình thường.
Điều này cho thấy ngay cả khi có nguồn hỗ trợ khẩn cấp, Cuba vẫn chưa có giải pháp dài hạn để thay thế nguồn cung từ Venezuela.
⚠️ ĐIỀU ĐÁNG LO NHẤT KHÔNG PHẢI LÀ THIẾU DẦU
Điều đáng lo nhất là Cuba đang rơi vào vòng xoáy gồm:
Mất điện → giảm sản xuất → thiếu hàng hóa → lạm phát → bất mãn xã hội → suy giảm đầu tư → tiếp tục thiếu ngoại tệ để nhập nhiên liệu.
Nếu vòng xoáy này kéo dài thêm nhiều tháng, Cuba có thể phải đối mặt với cuộc khủng hoảng kinh tế và xã hội nghiêm trọng nhất kể từ sau khi Liên Xô tan rã.
