Today, I am sanctioning Cuba’s state-owned energy company, Unión Cuba-Petróleo (CUPET), under President Trump’s EO 14404. Cuba’s Communist elites have weaponized energy as a tool of social control and kleptocratic profit.
For decades, the regime has stolen and hoarded available fuel — using it for the Castros’ private jet, the security services forces used to repress the Cuban people, to keep empty tourist hotels lit up, and to bus people in for fake protests and political stunts — all while the Cuban people have suffered blackouts and waited weeks to fill their cars.
President Trump wants a new future for the Cuban people with greater economic and political freedom and opportunity. Until then, we will continue to target the Communist regime’s ability to leverage its energy trade to further its corrupt agenda and violently repress the Cuban people.
Nuestra embajada se une hoy al pedido de los Cubanos de a Pie y los que se encuentran afuera en el exilio a que se liberen todos los presos políticos injustamente encarcelados. Sepan que nosotros 🇺🇸 les apoyamos. #Todos#Libertad
“…THERE WILL BE NO MORE OIL OR MONEY GOING TO CUBA - ZERO! I strongly suggest they make a deal, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. Thank you for your attention to this matter.”- President Donald J. Trump
En otra época, tener familiares en el extranjero —especialmente en Miami— implicaba marginación social. Hoy, ministros del régimen tienen hijos en el “imperio”. Mientras tanto, la falta de libertades para el ciudadano común permanece intacta. #Cuba
Decir que los mendigos están “disfrazados” es ignorar décadas de desigualdad. El hambre no es un disfraz. Es una realidad que merece acción, no burla. #Cuba
@CitImmCanada I don’t understand why it is not immediately, and how Canada can’t track whoever committed fraud. There is no room for allowing even a single case with fraudulent documents. As long as comments started, visa requirements for mexicans were reverted, while this will come in future.

It is shameful that even providing reasons that are understandable to any human being, and having explained these reasons at the exam center, with them being known to the examiners, @CELPIPTest refuses to make a transfer or refund.
