Communist regime collapse in Cuba before January 1, 2027?

Prediction market on manifold. This market predicts whether Cuba’s current one-party communist regime ceases to govern the country before the end of 2026. For the purposes of this market, “regime collapse” refers to a loss of effective political control by the Communist Party of Cuba (PCC), not merely protests, economic deterioration, or leadership reshuffles within the same power structure. ✅ Resolves YES if any of the following occur before December 31, 2026: The PCC formally loses its constitutional monopoly on power A non-PCC government (interim or permanent) assumes control of the Cuban state Miguel Díaz-Canel resigns, flees, or is removed and is not replaced by another PCC hardliner Binding, multiparty national elections are announced with a credible and public timeline The Cuban Armed Forces (FAR) or security apparatus openly break with the PCC and enable a transfer of power ❌ Resolves NO if: Large protests or unrest occur but the PCC retains power Leadership changes remain internal to the PCC or military elite Economic collapse, shortages, blackouts, or migration waves intensify without political transition Temporary emergency rule or repression restores regime control 📰 Resolution criteria This market will be resolved based on clear reporting from major international news organizations (e.g. Reuters, AP, BBC, El País), official Cuban government statements, and/or recognition by major foreign governments or international bodies. Ambiguous or disputed outcomes will be resolved conservatively. 📚 Background (for context) Cuba has been governed by a one-party communist system since 1959. Real political and economic power today is concentrated in the Communist Party, the Cuban Armed Forces (FAR), and military-run conglomerates such as GAESA, which controls large segments of tourism, retail, ports, and hard-currency flows. In recent years, Cuba has faced: Chronic fuel and electricity shortages Sharp declines in oil imports and foreign currency reserves Record-high emigration Periodic mass protests (notably July 2021) Increasing reliance on repression and emergency measures This market does not predict economic hardship or unrest per se, but whether those pressures result in a true political rupture of the current regime.
