American plans for Venezuelan oil

The Trump administration has indicated it intends to exert long-term control over Venezuela by directing the actions of its interim leadership and overseeing the nation’s oil exports after removing Nicolás Maduro, relying on measures such as a naval blockade and the threat of additional force to secure compliance from interim president Delcy Rodríguez. Given Venezuela’s vast proven oil reserves, this level of U.S. coercive influence could extend beyond the country itself, potentially giving Washington greater leverage over global oil supplies and the ability to affect prices.
