desmantelamento econômico (economic dismantling) - strong negative language
êxodo crescente (growing exodus) - dramatic language for business withdrawals
crise econômica cada vez mais insustentável (increasingly unsustainable economic crisis) - catastrophic framing

Cuban consumers will face increased unemployment, reduced access to foreign goods and services, higher prices due to supply constraints, and deteriorating economic conditions. International tourists and business travelers will have fewer accommodation and financial service options.
Secondary sanctions represent escalation of US embargo policy, creating compliance pressure on multinational corporations. Potential for retaliatory measures from Cuba and allied nations. May trigger diplomatic tensions and discussions at international trade forums regarding extraterritorial sanctions enforcement.
