Rubio Condemns Cuba for Sheltering Fugitive Tied to 1975 NYC Bombing

Senator Rubio condemns Cuba for sheltering a fugitive linked to a New York City bombing amid ongoing U.S.-Cuba tensions and a worsening Cuban economic crisis.

  • Secretary of State Marco Rubio has restored a Cuba policy organized around memory, shaped by the Cuban‑American exile community in Miami and the Trump administration's executive temperament.
  • Amid the island's deepest economic crisis, Cuba faces persistent inflation and collapsing tourism while losing Venezuela's energy lifeline that once supplied roughly 50,000 barrels per day, with Mexico's 20,000 barrels falling short.
  • Since 2021 many Cuban migrants have left via third countries and irregular routes toward the United States, with economic suffering reinterpreted as `fleeing communism`, justifying tougher border restrictions.
  • Cuba's state structures still provide essential services, and their sudden removal would risk a humanitarian crisis with mass displacement heading toward the United States about 90 miles from Florida.
  • This dynamic risks producing consequences neither Washington nor Cubans are prepared to contain, as a tightly closed pressure-policy loop converts Cuban suffering into mandate while hardening Cuban elites.
