>>761038>1.Chavez/Maduro anti-Americanism is just meaningless political propaganda and not actual actionoh yeah, its not like they are under crushing sanctions from them. Just cause they cant do shit and nothing would be worth the retaliation doesnt mean they're not genuine in their US hatred, theres just nothing meaningful to do beside cozying up with their enemies (which they do and it already trigger the US big time)
>not even US oil companies want to invest therebecause they know its not likely they will be able to exploit it without giving a fair share to venezuela, and even less long term. even if they can make profit, its not as much as they could make elsewhere for similar investment, and they fear they will stay under control of the venezuelan gov who could trade with friends at discount rather than trying to optimize profit only
>That Venezuela only stopped selling oil to the US because of Trump's sanctionswell yes, and? the problem is that they also sell to other people, and not in dollars
