During US sanctions, Venezuela shifted away from the dollar, selling oil and commodities in currencies like the Chinese Yuan, Russian Ruble, Indian Rupee, and Japanese Yen, using barter, non-Western clearing, and even its own crypto (Petro) to circumvent financial restrictions, especially with China as a key partner
not using US dollars for oil is one of the most dangerous things a head of state can do

It doesn’t. It was never about the oil. It’s about drugs.

Maybe he could use it to refill the reserve that Biden sold to try and win an election.

As long as the money is getting to their people and feeding the masses I’m all good with this.
I hope we aren’t taking too big of a discount.

It’s actually not about either.
It’s about control. Controlling imports and exports. Logistics.

I particularly like the 30 to 50 million barrel touch. It seems more believable when you give a range of 20 million, because that's how it's done in high level negotiations.
"Pay me this amount or a little more than half of it...whatever."

There are so many idiots on this board, and I'm not saying you are one of them, jizzle6609. You responded with a reasonable and respectable post.
However, after reading up to your response I find it incredible the nonsense/troll type responses.
The oil is being sold under US control to approved buyers. The proceeds from the sell will fund the rebuilding, feeding, and restructuring of the New Venezuela. This is just one way to get this thing bank rolled to start. Until things are sorted out and improved, this is probably a true "Non-Profit" deal.
Nonsense and troll bull shite listed below. Normally I skip over this kind of junk, but I'm feeling salty this morning. I missed Gunsmoke AND Bonanza yesterday.
Son Of a BITCH!
"We use 20m barrels per day. So 2 days."
"Why not resupply the strategic oil reserves?"
"So the oil runner ships we seized are different than the sanctioned oil?ioned oil?ioned oil?

Is this your feeble attempt to throw cold water on Trump winning? Can't that pea size brain of yours understand this is only the beginning?

I hear you.
Like I said, I don’t know that this is 100% about the oil.
I thinks it’s about us putting a stake in the ground as well as showing everyone what they are in store for if they want to oppose.
We can deplete you here and there or just beat you straight up, you pick.
Regardless of how anyone feels I just wan their people to be able to eat. Simple request and they have the reserves to be setup similar to a Kuwait if they can control themselves. They can’t though.

Disagree in this instance.
The chess pieces were moved after and during WWII, now it’s just been a cat and mouse game. The entire European continent is full of non-battle tested non-soldier citizens. All of their courageous men died long ago and didn’t reproduce.
Russia is about 25-40 years away from having no pure russian blood. They killed themselves off.
We run more propaganda hiding our capabilities than anyone can imagine.
Other countries are always playing catch up and they never will.
You have to defeat us within or you can’t defeat us.

I bet you're one of those that doesn't want to win the lottery because you'll have to pay additional taxes.

I don't know, But it's been said that Venezuela was a pretty good and prosperous country before the communist took control. But like I said I don't know, but I been told.d.d.
BTW, Communist taking control probably has nothing to do with voting machines in Venezuela.
