Unidentified speaker says rights stripped in Cuba, describes economic hardship and health harm

An unidentified speaker described deteriorating conditions in Cuba and said the removal of civil and material rights has left people unable to speak freely and without basic necessities. "Muy mal," the speaker said when asked how they see Cuba in five years.

The speaker asserted that "todos los derechos se han quitado, no podemos hablar, no tenemos nada," saying rights and freedoms have been taken away and that people lack material resources. When asked how these difficulties affect mental health and daily life, the interviewee connected the hardships to physical and psychological harm: "Mismo en esta cazuela... me quemé, me quemé," they said, reporting a burn sustained while cooking with inadequate facilities.

The speaker also said they cook "en medio de la calle," describing improvised, unsafe conditions for preparing food. The comments portray day-to-day survival challenges and a personal account of injury and stress; no policy proposals, official responses, or named government actions were recorded in the transcript.

Because the speaker is not identified by name or official role in the transcript, the remarks are presented here as first-person testimony. The transcript contains no references to formal motions, votes, or legal authorities, and it does not indicate follow-up actions or remedies discussed during the interview.
