[Venezuela terrorist organization Trump] Today, American president trump formally announced from the white house that the south American country of Venezuela has now been designated as a foreign terrorist organization. With Venezuela being designated by the Trump Administration, it has allowed the Americans to sanction Venezuelan oil tankers which have been making headlines as of late due to them utilizing a shadow fleet of oil tankers to deliver oil to non-aligned countries such as China and Iran. The Trump Administration claims that the newly ordered naval blockade is the “largest Armada ever assembled in the History of South America”.

 

The Trump Administration has also made the claim that Venezuela has engaged in the “theft of our Assets, and many other reasons, including Terrorism, Drug Smuggling, and Human Trafficking”. How true the claim made by the Trump Administration is still in question as there hasn't been any creditable proof released to the public to support president trumps claims. This new announcement comes on the heel of the Trump Administration executing missile strikes on civilians traveling within the international waters native to Venezuela. To date America has killed an estimated 90 people using missile strikes in the region. President Trump's reasoning for this is because of his claim that these were drug boats.

 

OUR POSITION AT VEDA WORLD NEWS

With claims made by the Trump Administration that drug boats are operating off the coast of Venezuela and headed towards America with no credible evidence to support their actions, many people within the international community are asking why are people still traveling in the international waters that are subjected to making them targets for American missile strikes? The answer to that question is currently unclear. Another question that’s being asked by the international community is why Venezuela, given the fact that according to the historical record, China has been the main exporter of fentanyl and fentanyl precursors. Adding insult to injury, most of the drugs and narcotics come only through Mexico, but from the Pacific Ocean and not the Gulf of America or the Atlantic Ocean for that matter.

 

Another question that’s being asked by the international community is does president trump's sanctions on Venezuelan oil apply to American companies such as Chevron who operate within the country of Venezuela? If not, the next question is why? Could it be that Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro Moros’s claims of the American plot to overthrow him to take control and exploit Venezuelan oil and other natural resources be true? It has been stated that the actions of president trump is somewhat reminiscent of the actions taken by former American president Franklin D. Roosevelt in which he utilizes such tactics such as the weaponization sanctions to the point that it crippled the Japanese economy so that the Japanese were left with no other option but to respond by the execution of kamikaze flight missions into Pearl harbor. Ironically the same tactic was used by the Americans in World War 2 which resulted in the Nazis sinking the American civilian steamship vessel called the SS Robin Moor.

 

Supporting this position, Russia and China have been openly warning president maduro not allow himself to be baited into reacting to the intense provocations by the Trump Administration. Put another way, China and Russia have been telling President Maduro not to give any ammunition to a gun (America) so that they can use that as an excuse to unleash chaos. It would be chaos which would not only lead America into another “Forever War”, but it would cause oil and gas prices to significantly spike worldwide.
