University of Pennsylvania Associate Professor Amalia Dache analyses how the upcoming presidential election will influence the economic situation in Cuba.
Cuba’s communist leadership is facing a fierce backlash that has not been seen since similar protests in July 2021.
These protests, which began over economic hardships and government repression, have now evolved into a broader call for political reform.
“As far as who’s going to represent more of the Cuban people’s needs, it may seem like the Republican or Republican candidate, but in reality, we don’t know if it’s going to align largely with the political needs and the policy needs of an entire Cuban community that’s multi-generational, that’s also a bit liberal,” Ms Dache told Sky News Australia.
“But when it comes to Cuba policy, typically the Republicans are the ones that do a better job.”
