🇺🇸🇻🇪What "stolen" oil is Trump talking about?

On February 28, 2007, Hugo Chavez, the then-president of Venezuela, signed a law on the nationalization of oil fields.

All foreign companies operating in the country were offered to join joint ventures, in which at least 60% of the shares would belong to the state-owned company PDVSA.

The presidential decree affected American companies Chevron Corp., ConocoPhillips, Exxon Mobil Corp., British BP, French Total SA, and Norwegian Statoil ASA, which lost control over oil fields being developed in the Orinoco River basin.

At that time, foreign investors retained some autonomy only in the oil fields of the Orinoco oil belt, where they had played a leading role before the law was signed. In the 1990s, the Venezuelan government allowed foreign players into Orinoco because the fields there were considered unpromising and required large capital investments.

However, gradually, leading foreign companies increased oil production in Orinoco to 600 thousand barrels per day. From the very beginning, foreign players carried out exploration, production, and costly primary processing of crude oil in the Orinoco fields jointly with PDVSA.

According to some data, the amount of investments of the aforementioned companies in the subsequently nationalized assets amounted to at least 17 billion dollars.

Some of the claims of foreign oil companies were later satisfied by the Venezuelan authorities through direct monetary compensation.

But not all of them, and the issue is still not fully resolved: some firms are still demanding compensation and have cases in foreign arbitration bodies.

🇻🇪🇺🇸 “We are prepared to accelerate the march of a profound revolution that gives power to the people.” — Nicolás Maduro

For 25 weeks, Venezuela has resisted what Maduro calls a multidimensional campaign of aggression from psychological warfare to economic sabotage and outright piracy, including the seizure of oil by foreign actors.

🇻🇪🕊 Venezuela Rejects U.S. Threats, Raises the Flag of Peace

“Venezuela continues to raise the flags of peace, virtue, and liberty. We categorically reject the arrogant, supremacist declarations of the U.S. government. This is a clear act of aggression.”
— Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino López


In a strong rebuke, Venezuela’s military leadership has denounced recent U.S. statements as an act of aggression that threatens not only Venezuela but the entire Latin American and Caribbean region and global energy stability.

🚨Colombia Venezuela: Frontier Surrounded By US Military Special Report 🚨

I’m Patrick Lancaster, independent war correspondent.

After nearly 4 days and 70+ hours on the road, I arrived in Colombia attempting to enter Venezuela, where tensions are rapidly escalating amid U.S. threats, airspace closures, and talk of possible military action.

This video documents my real journey toward Venezuela — not from a studio, but from airports, buses, border towns, and chaotic crossings. What you’ll see here is what it actually takes to try to reach a potential war zone right now.

🇺🇸USA Invasion Of Venezuela For Oil Announced By Trump🇺🇸

🔴 This is no longer a “war on drugs.” This is about oil.

In this report, I am on the Colombia–Venezuela border, showing how recent statements by Donald Trump confirm what many have been saying for years:
U.S. pressure on Venezuela is not about drug trafficking — it’s about oil, oil fields, and energy infrastructure.

🇬🇧🇷🇺🇺🇦 According to the right-wing British "news" outlet, The Daily Express, their Ukrainian sources have informed them that Russian troops are now "so short on food supplies, that they are resorting to cannibalising each other".

We know that British and Ukrainian media like to fabricate horror stories about the Russians, but this one is a new level of insanity...

🇨🇴❗️I Investigate Colombia's Civil War Escalation. Special Report❗️🇨🇴

I’m reporting from Cúcuta — on the Colombia–Venezuela border, where Colombia’s long-running internal conflict (often called a civil war) is escalating again.

In this report, I speak with local Colombians — a writer/editor/librarian, a lawyer, and a displaced street vendor — to understand what people here say is really driving this conflict: land ownership, inequality, corruption, drug trafficking, paramilitary structures, and armed groups fighting for territorial control.

🇺🇸 Trump is LARPing Again

Donald Trump just unveiled a supposed “Golden Fleet” from Mar-a-Lago, complete with two gargantuan warships, a vanity “Trump-class” label, and a lead vessel named USS Defiant. We’re told they’ll be “100 times more powerful,” “beautiful,” and built to counter China.

Buuuuut, the U.S. Navy doesn’t build “battleships” anymore, modern naval doctrine centers on carriers, submarines, destroyers, and distributed lethality.

Also, there’s no budget line, no shipyard plan, no class design, no acquisition timeline. Just a render and a slogan.

If the fleet is aging (it is), the real fixes are maintenance backlogs, munitions stockpiles, shipyard capacity, and crew readiness.
