Cuba said Thursday it will accept a $100 million humanitarian aid offer from the United States as the island faces a deepening fuel collapse, widespread blackouts, and growing public frustration in Havana.
Cuban leader Miguel Díaz-Canel said his government would not block the aid if Washington is "truly prepared" to provide it under internationally recognized humanitarian practices, according to the Miami Herald. His statement marked a sharp shift after Cuban officials had previously denied knowledge of the offer and accused Secretary of State Marco Rubio of misrepresenting the situation.
