From DW News.
The Russian newspaper Izvestia is reporting that Moscow is planning to send crude oil and fuel to Cuba. The country is suffering its worst energy crisis for years, after the US choked off its oil supplies. Cuba had long relied on its ally Venezuela for fuel, but those supplies dried up after the US abducted the country’s president, Nicolas Maduro.
Like many countries, Russia is evacuating its tourists from the island and suspending all flights there, because of a lack of aviation fuel. Canadian airlines also suspended flights this week – and Cuba has warned international carriers that jet fuel is no longer be available.
