**The US trade embargo, reinforced by a May 2026 executive order expanding sanctions, remains the dominant barrier preventing any McDonald’s announcement in Cuba during 2026.** Cuban authorities signaled openness to foreign franchises in June through Prime Minister Manuel Marrero’s economic reform package and followed up with Decree 167 in August, which authorizes “light food service networks of recognized brands.” President Miguel Díaz-Canel conditioned any entry on equal treatment for domestic actors but offered no specific commitments or confirmed negotiations with US chains. No statements or filings from McDonald’s indicate interest or planning, and corporate risk assessments continue to cite sanctions, payment restrictions, and economic instability as prohibitive. These factors sustain trader consensus that an announcement before year-end is highly unlikely.

Sì
An official announcement made within this market’s timeframe will qualify for a "Yes" resolution regardless of whether an actual McDonald’s restaurant opening subsequently takes place within the timeframe.
Any opening of a McDonald’s restaurant in Cuba will qualify regardless of its exact location.
Announcements that do not clearly commit to opening a McDonald’s restaurant, such as general business expansion statements, exploratory comments, or conditional announcements, will not count. Unlicensed restaurants, imitation restaurants, or other businesses using McDonald’s branding without authorization from McDonald’s Corporation will not qualify.
The resolution source will be official statements from McDonald’s Corporation or its authorized representatives; however, a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.
