Things are about to get worse thanks to the US neocons disrupting oil supply.

Is the situation in Cuba really this dire?
Limited resources and isolation imposed both internally and externally. It’s not out of the question.
Though with how much such governments suppress information, and others push misinformation. We may never know for sure.
The US embargo is severe, their electricity problems are severe. Their hunger problems are severe. Now this. Poor souls.
To expand a bit, the US embargo makes it so third countries don’t sell to Cuba. E.g. French firms no longer sell equipment and service needed for maintaining the electric system. Even if Cuba can afford it.
When Venezuela became closely aligned with Cuba, it once again benefited from external support similar to what it received during the years of Soviet backing.
Today, Venezuela is being held accountable for its own policy failures, and there is no longer a financial lifeline through preferential economic agreements into the island and makes blatantly evident the shortcomings of their model.
What policy failures is Venezuela being held accountable for? Who and under what authority is holding Venezuela accountable?
