I don't get this article, Cuba's only oxygen plant breaks down and it's the US' fault?
Maybe the Cuban president should ensure vital infrastructure can be maintained and holds an inventory of spares?

Something that'd be significantly easier to do if it weren't for the US's continued immoral blockade and sanctions? Cuba does not have the resources to maintain the plant purely on their own, and they can't hit a magic button that will suddenly let them find an abundance of spare tools and equipment to repair their infrastructure in a disaster scenario without wider access to international trade.
They are in trade with China. They can import what ever the hell they want. They did not import the components for the plant out of incompetence and are producing propaganda to deflect blame.
