Is Cuba's reform going in reverse?
When US President Barack Obama made his historic March 2016 visit to Havana, Cuban expectations of better times to come were high. As the United States goes to the polls to select its next president, it's clear that rapprochement with Cuba will be a key achievement of the Obama administration. But the slow pace of reform in Cuba is raising questions about President Raúl Castro's legacy. Frustration has begun to set in, with energy cuts paralysing production, the economy shrinking, and the country's economic "updating process" seemingly going in reverse. What is derailing Cuba's much-anticipated reform course?
