Cuba is indeed screwed with no oil or revenues (selling protection) from VZ.
They have a secondary that is much older than the relationship with VZ for oil however in Angola so they are not fully starved of oil/energy.
Thanks to the Lobito Accords Biden signed (right in front of what was Portugal's largest slave trading port by the way) we will have a difficult time blocking that oil which is now their lifeline.
What they were doing in VZ is based on the model of helping the MPLA in Angola during their civil war.

What a sad state of affairs this country is in when 4 people (or bots) downvote the OP in this thread.

Most of Congress.
Didn’t say anything meaningful at all.
Communist
Remember, yours slept for four damned years.
Democrats are liars and thieves.

If tweet fails to load, click here. “I will someday lead an army of exiles to overthrow Castro and become president of a free Cuba.”
Marco Rubio, age 12. His grandfather’s porch in Miami.
He wrote that in his 2012 memoir. Not rhetoric. A childhood vow, documented.
Today, Trump endorsed making it real.
Last week, 32 Cuban officers died in Rubio’s operation to capture Maduro.
Cuba has 4 days of oil.
Four days.
Every analyst is modeling this as foreign policy.
Wrong framework.
This is biography.
There is no interagency process for destiny.
There is no diplomatic off-ramp for a vow a man made to himself 50 years ago.
He’s not analyzing Cuba.
He’s completing himself.
February.
