The\u00a0very difficult\u00a0year of 2025 is now behind us, and 2026 is slowly beginning. Despite the many shortages and difficulties, Cubans on the island once again put their resilience and willpower to the\u00a0test, and\u00a0tried to have the best possible New Year\u2019s Eve, hoping for future improvement. But the change of year has not exactly brought good news.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If the past year was\u00a0<\/span>a very difficult period<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u202f\u2014\u00a0even more so than 2024\u00a0\u2014\u00a0marked by a worsening of the economic and energy crisis, government measures and plans that have so far failed, and increased pressure from Washington after Donald Trump\u2019s return to the White House, the year that is beginning does not look good at all. At least, judging by its first 10 days.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The strategic relationship between Havana and Caracas is going through a complicated period. Given\u00a0<\/span>the strong demands of the Trump administration<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0on the post-Maduro Chavista government and the close ties built over decades between the two countries, it remains to be seen how these relations will be reconfigured in practice beyond government statements and political speeches.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Otherwise, daily life offers no shortage of challenges. Even with a reduction in official figures, the dengue and chikungunya epidemic continues to plague Cubans, as do power outages, inflation, fuel\u00a0shortages\u00a0and the\u00a0\u201cstruggle\u201d\u00a0for survival that defines daily life on the island. In this sense, the year 2026\u00a0has begun\u00a0just as 2025 ended: without respite or romanticism.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This Sunday, photojournalist\u00a0<\/span>Otmaro\u00a0Rodr\u00edguez<\/span><\/b><\/a>\u00a0brings us closer to this harsh daily reality that has unfolded with the turn of the year, through his snapshots. His images are a portrait of what recently was\u00a0and also\u00a0of what is happening right now on the streets of Havana, at the very beginning of another year that is also expected to be difficult and challenging for the largest of the\u00a0Caribbean islands.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
