The reduction in imports of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) for domestic use in Cuba, which the government attributes to the intensification of U.S. <\/span>sanctions<\/span><\/a>, affects the supply of more than 1.7 million customers, the state-owned company Cuba-Petr\u00f3leo Union (CUPET) reported this Wednesday.<\/span><\/p>\n

The LPG deficit has made it necessary to extend the period of delivery to all customers, both those who acquire it in a regulated manner by family nucleus composition and those who buy it in a liberated way.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the case of two-people households, they will be able to buy a gas cylinder every 35 days and, according to the established scale, the cycle goes down for those with more family members up to those up to ten, who will receive it every 16 days, a note published on the Cuba-Petr\u00f3leo website said.<\/span><\/p>\n
