Trump administration offers $100m in aid to Cuba in exchange for reform

The US State Department has publicly announced an offer of $100 million in humanitarian assistance to Cuba, provided the island's communist government agrees to "meaningful reforms". The offer is part of an ongoing pressure campaign to destabilise Cuba's communist leadership. Cuba relies heavily on foreign oil imports, with only 40 percent of its oil supply produced domestically. The country faces a humanitarian crisis, with the United Nations warning of the possibility of "collapse" due to energy starvation.
