Russia pledges further oil supplies to Cuba after dispatching crude cargo

Russia said it will continue supplying oil to Cuba, following a tanker delivery of around 700,000 barrels of crude to the Caribbean island two weeks ago. The report underscores ongoing energy support tied to geopolitical alignment rather than a new market-moving policy shift. Impact is likely limited, with relevance mainly to Cuba's fuel security and broader Russia-Cuba relations.
