That’s the reason the oil was sanctioned.
Today… Until Trump gets a wild hair up his ass and decides that Russia should get the oil.
In other words… Today Venezuela has been stopped from fueling the genocide in Ukraine.
You don’t get it and that’s OK.
I get that you are defending the genocide in Ukraine.
Mate, you aren’t getting the point.
The formal reason why Venezuela has been sanctioned is to stop oil getting to Russia.
The other guy is pointing out that the sanctions are only being enforced by America because Trump has personal beef with Maduro.
As soon as Putin requests (orders) the blockade lifted then Trump will do so.
Trump does not give a shit about Ukraine.
Wait what? Russia buys oil from Venezuela? I thought Russia had tons of oil… or is it only natural gas?
It might be the other way round, but even oil producers buy oil
You’re not saying anything new just reinforcing what I said:
Venezuela is trying to supply black market oil to Russia and Iran after that oil was sanctioned because of the genocide in Ukraine.
The other guy is talking conspiracy theories. The oil was sanctioned and Venezuela still tried to supply it to profit off genocide. Of course the US is going to enforce the sanctions. This isn’t 5d chess.
Trump can’t be too blatant about his loyalty to Putin. Everytime his base starts to notice he does something to pretend he isn’t owned by Putin.
Lifting the blockade for Putin would be too blatant. He would lose followers.
The sanctions have been in place for years.
America hasn’t enforced them.
When America started attacking Venezuela it was because of drugs.
Now Trump has admitted it is about oil. Thats it. There’s no conspiracy, Trump either lied originally or he has no fucking clue what hes doing or why.
He hasn’t even mentioned sanctions either.
Pam Bondi speaks on behalf of Trump and was quoted in the article:
Why would Russia need to do so much work when they are making headway with BRICS, developing a close relationship with India for oil importation, and China and North Korea are actively undermining any sanctions?
Trump is not blockading Venezuela because of sanctioned oil. Trump as getting ready to do a Ukraine on Venezuela because he is butt hurt that every war he has tried to “end” has failed and he wants to look strong. Fucking daddy issues this guy.
-Ukraine and Russia
-Israel and Palestine
-Cambodia and Thailand
-Israel and Syria
-Nigeria and Boko Haram
That and he’s relying on his tried and true tactic for every time things go unfavorably: deflect and distract.
American economy is suffering? Start a war! Epstein files are coming? Start a war!
Get the fuck out of here with the whole “he’s sanctioning Russia through attacking Venezuela” bullshit.
You lack knowledge and understanding of geopolitical affairs.
Edit: Trump rapes children and he still has support.
The fact that the oil from Venezuela was headed to Russia and Iran isn’t up for debate.
It’s pretty clear that you intend to defend the genocide in Ukraine.
