đš BIG NEWS: U.S.âVenezuela Oil Flows Are Rapidly Shifting đșđžđ»đȘ
The U.S. and Venezuela just announced a major pivot in oil trade â Caracas is set to turn over **30â50 million barrels of sanctioned Venezuelan crude to the United States**, to be sold at market prices with proceeds managed by the U.S. administration. ([Al Jazeera][1])
This move represents one of the biggest changes in Venezuelan oil flows seen in years. The oil will be shipped directly to U.S. ports and is expected to **divert cargoes that might otherwise have gone to buyers like China**, pressuring global distribution patterns. ([Geo News][2])
U.S. refiners stand to benefit from increased heavy crude supplies, while Venezuela avoids deeper production disruptions under its blockade. ([Geo News][2])
This isnât just a trade deal â itâs a **geopolitical shift**. Trumpâs strategy positions the U.S. with significant leverage over one of the worldâs largest oil reserve holders, potentially reshaping energy prices, alliances, and export routes for years to come. ([Al Jazeera][1])
