The Trump administration has maintained and escalated pressure on Cuba’s energy sector since January 2026 through Executive Order 14380 (oil supply tariffs) and Executive Order 14404 (secondary sanctions on foreign entities operating in Cuba’s energy, defense, mining, and financial sectors). The State Department and OFAC have repeatedly designated entities including state oil firm CUPET, GAESA-linked companies, and other energy importers/exporters, with fresh actions in July 2026 targeting additional energy and sanctions-evasion networks plus limited wind-down licenses expiring August 22. These steps followed the cutoff of Venezuelan supplies and aim to restrict government revenue while Cuba pursues market-liberalization reforms. Limited February 2026 guidance allowing licensed private-sector oil transactions has not altered the broader tightening pattern, with officials stating new measures will continue to close loopholes. This sustained sanctions architecture, absent major diplomatic shifts or policy reversals, shapes trader assessments of near-term relief announcements.
