Appalling illegal act by Trump to seize Venezuela’s oil. Rajan Menon, Prof of International Relations, outlines Trump's fictitious justifications, including false allegations #Venezuela “stole” oil & land belonging to US. The truth is the US has no legal claim to Venezuelan oil & Trump is a gangster

Now that Trump controls Venezuela's oil reserves this shifts the balance of power in the world and The United States and Canada together control close to 50% of the world's oil reserves.

If Exxon Mobil tells him to abduct the Venezuelan president…well that's exactly what he does.
