Cuba Races to Head Off Protests as Shortages Spread, Tensions Build
On Sunday evening, Beatriz Johnson, the leader of the Communist Party in Santiago de Cuba, took a proactive approach to quelling the anger of hundreds of demonstrators demanding electricity and food by climbing onto the roof of a house.
After a few tense hours, food trucks arrived in Santiago, the country’s second-largest city. Johnson and her team distributed essential items such as rice, sugar, milk, and soap.
Following one of Cuba’s daily prolonged blackouts, power was restored in Santiago.
“We informed Beatriz that if shortages persisted or if any other issues arose, we would take to the streets again,” said Vismaika Amelo, a resident of Santiago who received supplies.
These demonstrations were unusual, as were the authorities’ responses, which typically involve deploying riot police to suppress unrest.
However, economists suggest that the Communist government has limited options for significantly improving living conditions before the sweltering summer months, during which protests often occur and electricity demand peaks, the Wall Street Journal reported.
