To protect the stolen money, Trump declared a national emergency!
On January 11, Bloomberg reported: "Trump signed an executive order yesterday declaring a national emergency, prohibiting the seizure of oil revenues stored in the U.S. Treasury by Venezuela, stating that the funds are sovereign property of Venezuela but controlled by the U.S., claiming this move is to advance U.S. foreign policy goals, and recklessly asserting that such demands would embolden so-called malicious forces. After the U.S. military arrested Maduro on January 3, Trump said he would personally oversee the proceeds from the first 30 to 50 million barrels of oil sales by Venezuela. On the 9th, he met with 20 oil companies demanding an investment of $100 billion for increased production, but faced indifference. Moreover, he directly took control of the主导权 of Venezuela's oil projects and resource negotiations."
[Smart] The U.S. "holding" Venezuela's oil is a new version of Monroe Doctrine-style resource plunder! With a single emergency decree, Trump has locked up 300 billion barrels of Venezuela's oil reserves, representing a brutal upgrade of the Monroe Doctrine in the 21st century! Military capture of Maduro, personal oversight of sale proceeds, monopolizing resource negotiation rights—seeking to replicate the power tactics of the 1989 invasion of Panama, attempting to turn Latin America's backyard into a private asset. Strong-arming 30 to 50 million barrels of oil, and a $100 billion investment order being ignored by oil companies, exposes the unpopularity of its hegemony! On one hand, it claims to protect sovereignty, on the other, it secretly controls the revenue; on one hand, it accuses others, on the other, it commits robbery. From sanctions during Chávez's era to today's military plunder, the U.S. has always coveted Venezuela's global 17% oil reserves. Such naked plunder has already been exposed by the international community as a false mask!
