Cuban in the USA outraged after blackout on the island: "After three days, I came to hear my mother's voice."

A Cuban resident in the United States has shared a video in which she expresses her desperation for not being able to communicate with her mother in Cuba, due to the prolonged power outages affecting the island.

In the video, shared on TikTok by the user @lidiadiaz1994, the woman recounts the anguish she feels from not having heard her mother's voice for three consecutive days.

"After three days, I came to hear my mother's voice," confesses the young woman, revealing the impact that power outages have had on her life, even while being far from her homeland.

This situation, which has been shared by thousands of Cubans inside and outside the island, reflects the daily drama that families divided by borders suffer, especially when they are affected by failures in basic services, such as electricity and telecommunications.

In addition to expressing her desperation over the lack of communication, the young woman also exploded against the Cuban president, Miguel Díaz-Canel, for his recent statements in which he suggested that Cubans outside the island should send power generators and solar panels to their relatives to help alleviate the energy crisis.

In the video, the woman does not hide her indignation: "He thinks that those of us here only have to supply people in Cuba and that there is nothing to pay," she said, criticizing the leader's disconnection from the economic reality of Cubans abroad, who also face their own economic difficulties.

The video, which has gone viral, has generated a wave of solidarity among social media users, many of whom have shared their own experiences of anguish and despair regarding the difficulties they face in staying in touch with family in Cuba.

Criticism of the Cuban government and its inability to resolve blackouts has been constant, especially following Díaz-Canel's controversial statements.

Today, Cuba enters its fourth consecutive day of large-scale blackouts, a reality that continues to generate criticism towards the Cuban government and its handling of the energy crisis.

Meanwhile, the stories of Cubans who cannot stay in touch with their loved ones are multiplying, especially those who rely on international communication to learn about the well-being of their relatives on the island.
