Aymée Nuviola criticized the Cuban government over deteriorating living conditions, citing power cuts and shortages of essential products. The artist made the remarks in an interview published October 10 by the Spanish newspaper El Debate.

Nuviola said her father, who is over 80, lives in Cuba and that relatives abroad send him food, medicine and hygiene products. She also said she saw international donations being sold in stores operating in U.S. dollars.

The singer said she cannot return to Cuba and connected that situation to her public criticism of the government, although the interview does not confirm a formal entry ban. She added that she would continue expressing her views despite possible personal consequences.
