Voice of America
An ice cream street vendor shows his Cuban pesos in Havana on April 20, 2024. An increasing number of Cubans are having to grapple with the country's shortage of cash.
Alejandro Fonseca stood in line for several hours outside a bank in Havana hoping to withdraw Cuban pesos from an ATM, but when it was almost his turn, the cash ran out. He angrily hopped on his electric tricycle and traveled several kilometers to another branch, where he finally managed to withdraw some money after wasting the entire morning.
