Russian oil finally reaches Cuba [View all]

https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czrevyx28z2o

A Russian tanker carrying oil to Cuba has entered the waters off the Communist-run island, Russia's Interfax news agency reports.
The oil shipment - the first to reach Cuba since January - comes hours after US President Donald Trump said that he had no problem with countries, including Russia, sending supplies to the island.
Trump's remark appeared to signal a loosening of a de facto oil blockade his administration had imposed on Cuba since January.
