🇷🇺 RUSSIA ON VENEZUELA: “ILLEGAL… BUT LOGICAL” 🇺🇸⚡
Moscow just dropped a cold, calculated take.
Yes — Russia says U.S. actions in Venezuela violate international law.
But then comes the twist 👀👇
They call Trump’s move “consistent with U.S. strategic interests.”
Translation?
Game recognizes game.
⚖️ What’s really being said: • Public stance: Illegal, against sovereignty
• Real message: This is how superpowers secure their backyard
• Oil is the prize: Venezuela = world’s largest proven reserves
This isn’t ideology — it’s energy chess.
📉 Why markets should care: • Russia’s tone = lower escalation risk
• Signals openness to spheres-of-influence deals, not proxy wars
• Less geopolitical retaliation = oil risk premium may cool
No outrage.
No retaliation threats.
Just realism.
🌍 Power politics in plain sight.
