AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Power Crisis Hits Again: Cuba’s national electric grid suffered a total disconnection on Monday, July 6, leaving about 10 million people without power as crews worked to restore service; the outage follows earlier blackouts amid a severe fuel crisis tied to a US oil blockade and halted fuel imports. Diplomacy Signal: Hours before the latest collapse, Raúl Guillermo Rodríguez Castro (Raúl Castro’s grandson) said he’s willing to speak directly with US President Donald Trump as Cuba’s leadership publicly endorses him as an intermediary. Tourism Reality Check: With Cuba’s infrastructure strain worsening, travelers are asking whether hotels are still worth it; one Varadero guest said a reopened Meliá Sol Palmeras resort feels cleaner and more modern after repairs, with backup generators added. US Policy Pressure: A new US appropriations bill targets Cuba’s overseas medical missions, framing them as exploitative and pushing for accountability measures. On-the-Ground Culture: Despite energy limits, ICAIC says it’s keeping film exhibitions and festival plans moving, including Gibara’s low-budget film festival preparations.
