Rubio announces US sanctions on Cuban state-owned oil company
National Security and Foreign Policy,” sanctions the Cuban government by increasing economic pressure against Cuba and various foreign companies that engage in business dealings with the Caribbean country. Rubio said energy has long been weaponized by Cuba’s government, with its people suffering from fuel shortages and blackouts while its elites live in extravagance. The State Department alleges the company functions as a tool of repression and regime kleptocracy, rationing energy to control its people while enriching the finances of the regime’s Cuban communist leaders.
