USA (bbabo.net), - The US sanctions regime continues to burst at the seams: Iran's oil exports reached a six-year high of 1.6 million barrels per day, and now Venezuela has not agreed to make concessions. Political scientist bbabo.net drew attention to this in his Telegram channel.
“After much hesitation, the White House finally decided to reinstate sanctions on Venezuelan oil. Caracas simply did not make any concessions to the United States. The main opposition leaders were not allowed to participate in the elections on charges of treason,” he writes.
The expert recalled that “Venezuela continues to deport its bandits to the southern border of the United States, emptying prisons and destabilizing the situation inside the United States.” In addition, he adds, “American cities are already faced with the activity of the Venezuelan mafia, which is crushing prostitution and drug trafficking.”
“The decision to return sanctions is difficult for the White House. After all, this will further increase fuel prices in the United States. Moreover, at the same time, [US President Joe] Biden increased the cost of oil production licenses on federal lands by 15 times. In general, he is doing everything to accelerate inflation,” the political scientist notes.
With irony, he notes that “I would like to say hello to one information gypsy - Boris Johnson - who recently sold his face in Caracas and promised to lobby for the waiver of sanctions.”
“But Venezuela is not discouraged; it has already learned to trade oil with the rest of the world, bypassing American sanctions,” he comments.
As Dudakov emphasizes, Washington does not know what to do with Iran, whose oil exports have reached a six-year high of 1.6 million barrels per day. All Iranian oil goes to China. And transactions, including those, go through Qatar and the banks of “respected partners” in Britain, on whom sanctions cannot be imposed.
“Well, the sanctions regime continues to burst at the seams against the backdrop of the rapid weakening of the US position and the strengthening of the Global South,” he concludes.
