US policy toward Cuba remains defined by a comprehensive economic embargo in place since 1962, reinforced under the second Trump administration through executive orders, re-designation as a state sponsor of terrorism, and a January 2026 national emergency declaration authorizing secondary tariffs on foreign oil suppliers to the island. These measures have contributed to acute fuel shortages and power outages in Cuba, prompting public statements from President Trump urging Cuban officials to negotiate a deal while also referencing potential regime change pressures. Cuban authorities have released political prisoners and signaled openness to technical cooperation on security issues without preconditions for governmental changes, yet no agreements easing sanctions or expanding bilateral trade have been confirmed. Trader assessments of an economic deal by late 2026 reflect the entrenched legislative barriers to lifting core embargo provisions, the administration’s maximum-pressure approach via the Treasury and State Departments, and limited diplomatic momentum despite Cuba’s economic vulnerabilities. Scheduled congressional oversight and any further executive actions on sanctions relief could influence near-term probabilities.
