What happened
Miguel Díaz-Canel stated that five of the 176 economic and social measures announced by the Cuban regime are yet to be implemented. This admission came despite the government having approved 215 legal frameworks to support these initiatives. The 176 measures, which span 23 thematic areas, cover changes across nearly every economic sector, including foreign trade, subsidies, and private sector activities.
