Um, that is not enough to feed your family.

So the despair is, is a tangible incubation is big in Cuba.

You can, you can feel the despair.

All right.

So it is in the context of all of this that President Trump says he wants regime change in Cuba.

He is not being subtle about it.

He's actually being quite loud about it.

What do you think about this coming from Trump?

Well, I think Cuba needs a change, a big change, and not a cosmetic change.

Cuba needs a system change.

The centralized system in Cuba for the Communist Party has been destroying not only the economy, but the life of thousands of families.

There are separations.

My family and I, we were very lucky that we can arrive to the U.S.

together, but we have a lot of friends.

and family members that are being separated because of migration, because of exile.

What you feel in Cuba now, it's hope.

People are also with some mix of anxiety because people don't know what's going to happen.

But people think there is hope because the policies that President Trump is taking, and especially because Marco Rubio is in the team.

And Marco Rubio, because of his Cuban heritage, he really understands, I think, what's happening in the area, what's happening in the Caribbean area, what's happening in Latin America.

What does a change look like?
