- Cuba marks Fidel Castro’s 100th birthday as his shadow still shapes a nation in crisis
As Fidel Castro would have turned 100, Cuba marked his centennial with events including the International Book Fair and art exhibitions. This commemoration occurs while the nation faces an economic crisis fueled by a crippling U.S. energy blockade and sanctions imposed by the Trump administration. The effects of these measures include prolonged power outages, shortages of fuel and medicine, and declining industrial activity.
