Yesterday, at the start of a roundtable meeting with business leaders at the White House, Trump told reporters: "We just seized a tanker off the coast of Venezuela, a large tanker, very big, actually the largest tanker seized so far. In addition, other things are happening, and you will see them later. His (Maduro's) good days are numbered!"
[Clever] Piracy-style wealth display? Hegemonic antics make everyone laugh! Trump boasted about seizing a huge vessel from Venezuela at the roundtable meeting, treating international piracy like a medal. He claims Maduro's good days are over, but in reality, it reveals his greedy nature - democracy and human rights are just a facade, while plundering oil resources is the real goal. It's no wonder Venezuela calls him shameless for stealing; the US often seizes assets of other countries, treating international law as trash. This kind of behavior based on hegemony to grab resources is less of a deterrent and more of a desperate performance. Does he really think that by seizing by force he can dominate the world? It's just another joke added to the international community, and it also further damages America's credibility!
