With how the U.S. has been apply economic sanctions against Cuba since the 60's it's pretty obvious. Anybody who's been doing trade with the U.S. has been forbidden to doing any trade with Cuba. Their only economic partners have been Russia, China and Venezuela.

More recently, Venezuela was the only supplier of oil to Cuba, and now the U.S. attacked Venezuela and gained control of their oil, and stopped al shipping to Cuba. Because of this, Cuba can't even produce electricity because their power stations ran on oil.
