Former American president Donald Trump has claimed that by buying oil from Venezuela, the US is ‘making a dictator very rich.’ He even suggested it could have taken the oil by force when, back in 2019, Venezuela was overwhelmed by protests and was ‘ready to collapse’ when Trump left his post.

Meanwhile, Washington has previously been accused of seizing oil from countries where it has conducted military operations, including Iraq and Syria.
