pana... i also think that maduro wants out... the question is whether trump wants Maduro out.
Maduro gives him all the excuses to continue taking veni oil to the US via Chevron as he pleases..... too much oil ..blockade.. too few oil... licenses...
it is easy with Maduro.
Can you imagine having to deal with psychotic MCM?
Remember it was "hasta el final"...
seems "el final" was a Martini Vodka in south beach while the US does the dirty job. |

pana... things are more complex than that ... we see only the tip of the iceberg...
in quick terms... the US wants Greenland and the US wants Venezuela. That is the objective....
all the people involved in this tragedy are simple pawns to distract the attention...some of them think they are in a revolutionary fight... the others in democracy fight... all are simple and irrelevant small characters of no relevance.
Russia took Crimea in 2014... and got away with it... The US went for Veni in 2015 with Obama .. Trump simply continued the plan in more brutal ways simply because he is brute.
Then Russia went for the Donbass and again is getting away with it... with the US acquiescence this time... so the US is renewing the push for Venezuela.
This is no different from what happened with Mexico in 1840 something...(americans here correct me if I am wrong)
Mexico refused to sell California and New Mexico to the US so the US went to war with Mexico...they won and they took not only California and New Mexico but also Nevada, Utah, Arizona, part of Colorado, part of Wyoming, Par of Oklahoma, part of Kansas... and paid some money for it.
The US wanted to expand first diplomatically then by war... Russia wanted to expand...etc...
Forget about Maduro, Los Soles, Aragua... democracy... MCM.. Urrutia (who says he won an election and instead of claiming victory went to hide in the Dutch embassy)
it is simple... for whatever reason...the US wants to expand... |

Savo, Vic...extraction of NM has been a nightmare, all those billions will end in dormant accounts!!
My personal take, the CIA operative is HIM, trying to fulminate the cartel, the only way to get out alive. |

savo, i am guessing, because they were still negotiating with nm back then.
and nm never acknowledged it, because it makes him look bad. |

Venezuela has begun shutting wells that pump extra-heavy crude in the Orinoco Belt, as the U.S. blockade is squeezing shipments and filling up storage space, sources with knowledge of the plans of state oil firm PDVSA told Bloomberg.

Exclusivo: la CIA ejecutó un ataque con drones contra una instalación portuaria en la costa de Venezuela
CNN —
La CIA ejecutó un ataque con drones a principios de este mes contra una instalación portuaria en la costa de Venezuela, dijeron a CNN fuentes familiarizadas con el asunto, lo que marca el primer ataque conocido de EE.UU. contra un objetivo dentro de ese país.
El ataque con drones, cuyos detalles no se habían reportado previamente, tuvo como objetivo un muelle remoto en la costa venezolana que el Gobierno de EE.UU.
creía que estaba siendo utilizado por la banda venezolana Tren de Aragua para almacenar drogas y trasladarlas a embarcaciones para su posterior envío, según las fuentes. No había nadie presente en la instalación en el momento del ataque, por lo que no hubo víctimas, según las fuentes.
Las Fuerzas de Operaciones Especiales de EE.UU. proporcionaron apoyo de inteligencia a la operación, recalcaron las fuentes, subrayando su continua participación en la región. Pero la coronel Allie Weiskopf, vocera del Comando de Operaciones Especiales de EE.UU., lo negó, diciendo: “Operaciones Especiales no apoyó esta operación, incluyendo el apoyo de inteligencia”.

pillz.. how does it matter what precious metals do in the next days...?
the US will continue overspending...
the FED will continue printing money right and left to keep Wall Street happy and the budget deficit funded...
In the meantime Fed governors will continue discussing the sex of the angels instead of fighting inflation as they should.
and the defense department will continue deploying the largest armada the world has ever seen... with no money to pay for it and stealing veni's oil to foot the bill.
IMHO it is over for the dollar...

Bloomberg) -- Venezuela started shutting wells in a region that holds the world’s largest deposits of oil in the face of a blockade by the Trump administration meant to financially squeeze the nation.
Petroleos de Venezuela SA began shuttering wells in the Orinoco Belt on Dec. 28 as the state-run refiner ran out of storage space and inventory swelled, according to two people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing internal matters. PDVSA aims to reduce Orinoco Belt production by at least 25% to 500,000 barrels a day, the people said. The decrease represents a 15% cut of Venezuela’s overall output of 1.1 million barrels a day.
The decision signals a reality check for Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, who throughout the blockade has attempted to maintain exports that are at the core of the South American country’s economy. Disabling wells is seen as a last resort because of the operational challenges and high costs to restart, one of the people said.
Representatives of the government and PDVSA did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
PDVSA on Dec. 23 signed off on the idea to decrease production starting Dec. 28, one of the people said. The plan is to shut wells in the most extra-heavy crude oil division of the Orinoco Belt, Junin, then move to the rest, Ayacucho and Carabobo, which hold less heavy oils.
China is Venezuela’s main oil buyer. The US imposed sanctions against Venezuela in 2019 and this month US President Donald Trump ordered a military blockade saying it was needed to stop drug cartels.
