“We are an energy powerhouse. We are. It has brought us tremendous problems because, as you know, the energy voracity of the North wants our country's resources. And we had denounced all the falsehoods that drug trafficking, democracy, and human rights were not the issue. They were excuses. Because...

Marco Rubio dismantles Kristen Welker as he explains how President Trump's use of military intervention is 'America First': "We don't need Venezuela's oil. We have plenty of oil in the United States. What we're not going to allow is for the oil industry in Venezuela to be controlled by adversaries of the United States. You have to understand: why does China need their oil? Why does Russia need their oil? Why does Iran need their oil? They're not even in this continent. This is the Western Hemisphere. This is where we live. And we're not going to allow the Western Hemisphere to be a base of operations for adversaries, competitors, and rivals of the United States, simple as that. We want to see the oil proceeds of that country benefit the people of Venezuela. Why have 8 million people left Venezuela? Eight million, the single largest mass migration probably in modern history, left Venezuela since 2014? Because all the wealth of that country was stolen to the benefit of Maduro and his cronies and the regime, but not to the benefit of people of Venezuela. You know how destabilizing 8 million migrants is? The number one fear that Brazil has, that Colombia has, that all these countries in the region have about what's happening in Venezuela and our involvement is they're afraid of another mass migration event. That's what they fear. This is deeply destabilizing stuff. It's not going to continue to happen. They are not going to come from outside of our hemisphere, destabilize our region in our own back yard, and us have to pay the price for it. Not under President Trump."

VIDEO | Talking on whether India will stop buying Russian oil as claimed by the US, foreign secretary Vikram Misri says the country is neither dependent on any single source for this, nor intend to be. He says, "You are aware that India is a net importer in the oil and gas sector. We are a developing economy; we have to be conscious about our resource availability. Naturally, when you are dependent to the extent of 80–85% on an imported resource, you have to have concerns about the possibility of inflation driven by energy costs. So, it’s not surprising therefore that our foremost priority is to safeguard the interests of Indian consumers insofar as energy is concerned—to really ensure that they receive adequate energy at the right price and through reliable and secure supplies. And our import policy insofar as energy is concerned is therefore driven entirely by these objectives. Now, you would also have observed that in recent years, the global economy has faced significant uncertainties which have had a major impact on the stability of global energy markets... We are neither dependent on any single source for this, nor do we intend to be. And it is natural for the mix of sources to vary from time to time, depending on objective market conditions. Our approach is to maintain multiple sources of supply and diversify them as appropriate to ensure stability. Therefore, I would say that the more diversified we are in this area, the more secure we are. So far, as actual sourcing of energy is concerned—again, all of you follow this closely, so you know that the actual sourcing is done by oil companies. Oil companies in the public sector, oil companies in the private sector. And they make decisions based on market conditions. They assess availability at any given point in time, they assess risks, they assess costs in this process. And obviously, all of these companies also have their own internal accountability-related processes to look at and certain fiduciary responsibilities in the market..."

#WATCH | On situation in Venezuela, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says, "...Three-fold process in Venezuela. Step 1 is the stabilisation of the country; we don't want it descending into chaos. Part of that stabilisation, and the reason why we understand and believe that we have the strongest leverage possible is our quarantine. Two more ships were seized today. We are in the midst right now and about to execute on a deal to take all the oil - they have oil that is stuck in Venezuela. They can't move it because of our quarantine and because it's sanctioned. We are going to take bwteen 30 and 50 million barrels of oil. We are going to sell it in the market place at market rates, not at the discounts Venezuela was getting. That money will then be handled in such a way that we will control how it is dispersed in a way that benefits the Venezuelan people...The second phase will be a phase of what we call recovery - ensuring that American, western and other companies have access to the Venezuelan market oil that is fair, also at the same time, we begin to create the process of reconciliation nationally within Venezuela so that the Opposition forces can be released from prisons or brought back to the country, and we begin to rebuild civil society. The third phase will be one of transition. Some of these will overlap, I have described this to them in great detail. We will have more detail in the days to follow but we feel like we are moving forward here in a very positive way." (Video Source: Reuters)

#WATCH | Delhi: At the joint press conference with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, EAM Dr S Jaishankar says, "India would be one of the very few countries who has very good relations, very strong relations with the United States, with Israel, with Iran, and with the Gulf countries. So we have real interest there. For us, the challenge in this situation is how to maintain all these relationships, how to protect our equities, how to advance our interests. We don't look at it as a zero-sum game. We have to manage and take care of all these accounts. I would say there are some general principles by which we would approach this region. Obviously, we want peace and stability in the region. For us, the welfare, the well-being of the diaspora is crucial. We want to see energy prices go down because we are a very big importer of energy, and much of it comes from that region. As I stated in my remarks, we are very much in favour of safe and unimpeded maritime commerce through the region. What we want to see is really the markets open up there. We don't want to see constraints. So these would be the principles with which we would approach that region and in a way, I think we will find increasingly in the world that there will be conflicts or difficult situations where India, because our interests are growing, we have relationships with all the parties involved, and we are seeing this in the Ukraine conflict as well, where we have very strong relations with Russia, Europe, Ukraine as well, we have it with the United States and then the question is how do you manage all of them. So in that sense, yes, it is multi-alignment because today's India has that range of interests which require us to manage multiple accounts."

Now that President Trump has declared that the US is in control of Venezuela and that the US plans on taking back the oil, it makes zero sense for there to still be sanctions on Venezuela under the Trump administration. The sanctions were imposed by the Trump administration in addition to an oil embargo and sanctions on entities involved in Venezuela's oil and gold industries, including "shadow fleet" tankers evading sanctions, because of Maduro’s behavior. Now that Maduro Nicolás Maduro has been captured, the Trump administration should immediately lift sanctions on Venezuela and restore all of the oil licenses to American energy executives and American oil companies. Why would you want to have sanctions on a country you yourself control when you could just re issue the oil licenses to Americans and retake the 1 million barrels of oil per day that are being exported to China from Venezuela? China shouldn’t be getting that oil. It should all be going to the United States. It’s time for America to neutralize Russia, Iran and China’s access to oil in the Western Hemisphere and assert energy dominance in Venezuela. Hopefully, we see the Trump administration reissue the oil licenses to American oil companies who have infrastructure in Venezuela. Maduro is out. Let’s make 2026 the year America controls the largest oil, rare earth minerals and gold reserves in the world. Cc: President Donald J. Trump Marco Rubio Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent
