1 00:00:01,160 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: Cuba's puppet president, Miguel Diez Canal vows quote unbreakable resistance 2 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:14,040 Speaker 1: in an anti Trump tirade. Now, why did this happen? 3 00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: Is the question that everyone should be asking. I'm going 4 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: to explain it to you. The country just suffered a 5 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 1: massive nationwide blackout, lasting nearly twenty nine hours. It's literally 6 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,920 Speaker 1: one of the worst in years in Cuba. And it's 7 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: all because Cuba is on the brink of a total 8 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: economic and energy collapse, and it's literally getting worse by 9 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: the day. Power outages are now routine, some of them 10 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: are facing twenty plus hour daily blackouts due to fuel 11 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:51,720 Speaker 1: shortages and a crumbling grid. The root cause it's simple, 12 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: no oil. Cuba has gone months with little to no 13 00:00:55,400 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: fuel imports, crippling their electricity production, and is dealing with 14 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: severe shortages of food, fuel, and basic services, all triggered 15 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: by the rising unrest as well. There's been a mass exodus. 16 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: Over a million people have already fled the country of Cuba, 17 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:19,839 Speaker 1: and protests are growing, including violent demonstrations and now attacks 18 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: on government buildings that are fueled by the depression and 19 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: the desperation of the people in Cuba over the regime 20 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 1: Now even Cuban leadership is now scrambling talking about opening 21 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: the economy to foreign investment, something they've resisted for literally decades, 22 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: as they are desperate. Now Trump's strategy maximum pressure is 23 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: clearly working. The Trump administration has gone all in with 24 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: an oil blockade, cutting off fuel supplies the biggest pressure 25 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: point on the regime, pushing for regime change in democratic 26 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: reforms as conditions for relief. Trump said Cuba is very 27 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: weakened and the US could make a deal or just 28 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: take action. The bottom line is clear. The strategy is 29 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: to force the regime to negotiate at the table hard 30 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: and quickly for real reforms, or flat out collapse under 31 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: their own pressure. Now Cuba's communist leadership is digging in hard. 32 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: The president there is promising that unbreakable resistance against the US, 33 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: blaming the crisis entirely on US sanctions and economic warfare, 34 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 1: cracking down on protests, and warning dissent will be punished. 35 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: At the same time, he's quietly entering talks with US 36 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:47,959 Speaker 1: out of desperation. Now the president is a communist figurehead, 37 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:52,359 Speaker 1: he's the president of Cuba, and he threatened any external 38 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,920 Speaker 1: aggressor to the Cuba regime will be met with unbreakable 39 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: resistance after Donald Trump said We'll be doing something with 40 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: Cuba very soon now. For over six decades, the disastrous 41 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: communist policies of the Castor regime have forced Cubans to 42 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: live through inhumane conditions of well abject misery. The situation 43 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: in Cuba has worsen in recent weeks after the Roague 44 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: Communists abruptly lost access to virtually the free oil that 45 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 1: had been receiving for decades from Venezuela and socialist regime 46 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: following the United States arrests of their dictator Maduro in January. Now, 47 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: I've got more to say on this, but first I 48 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: want to tell you about our good friends at Bitcoin IRA. 49 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 1: I got to ask you a question, can you buy 50 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 1: Roe bitcoin in your retirement account?

Now, 66 00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: now the developing situation has been exacerbated by an increase 67 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,599 Speaker 1: in the power blackouts and AS i, said the widespread 68 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:04,280 Speaker 1: shortage of food and other supplies that led to a 69 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: surgeon daily anti communist protests that are spreading across Several 70 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 1: cuban provinces in recent. Days, now in one of the 71 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: more dramatic, displays you had a group of protesters set 72 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 1: fire to the local headquarters of The Cuban Communist. Party 73 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: that was certainly a big move for the. Protesters and 74 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:29,279 Speaker 1: then On, Monday cuba's barely functional power grid collapsed yet, 75 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: again leading to that nationwide blackout that at press time 76 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: when the reports came out Of, cuba has not been 77 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: fully resolved and may not be anytime soon. Now in 78 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,479 Speaker 1: a brief statement published by The Cuban regime outlet On, 79 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: tuesday the president claimed that The United states allegedly Threatens 80 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 1: cuba almost daily with overthrowing the constitutional order by.
