It’s almost not the embargo. It’s the Cuban government behavior. They’re just criminals who manage a state-monopolistic capitalist country.
It has never been real socialism, but now it’s very far from it, with the state only investing (wasting) money for building big hotels where no one go (occupation around 20% in high season across the island) and leaving population in hanger and without any basic public service.
Meanwhile the new little (till 250 employees) private companies import anything from anywhere through corruption, reselling goods at crazy prices that only rich cubans can achieve. No embargo does not exist for them.
While society gap is everyday higher.
It was never real socialism agreed, but about 2 years after the embargo is when the country really went to shit. There’s quite a few video documentaries about it, i wont argue with you about weather or not im right because im just telling you facts.
Can’t say embargo doesn’t play a role, but it’s more a cover for bad management.
There’s no embargo with Europe, and plenty of companies may don’t give a shit about exporting to US, while Cuba could have been a big market. But this didn’t happen. Why?
Simply because the state has no money, and waste the ones it has.
