The US has reinstated oil sanctions against Venezuela’s government, arguing it has not met conditions to hold fair and competitive elections as negotiated with US envoys and the opposition last year.
However, the US oil company Chevron will be allowed to continue a joint venture with the Venezuelan state oil company.

Inflation in Venezuela today in 2024 is 200% but then I guess that is a whole lot better than the 63,000% inflation Maduro brought upon Venezuela in 2018.
I hate US ruling. It can’t be justified as it never meets the justice.
Look up Barbados Agreement before making asinine comments.
GZ , The world now is …
The rest(80%) Vs the west(20%)
STOP NOSING CRIMINAL. FATHER OF CRIME US.🖕
Here we go again.
The Venezuelans need to host a Russian or Chinese military base.
They need to surrender that oil if they know what is good for them
Don’t suggest a Valenzuela missile crisis brother😅
@user-um3bb3yh9n Well, maybe Uncle Sam needs to stop causing trouble in Russia’s back yard.
@@chamberpot969 Venezuelan caused this trouble.
Sure elections lol thats ofc why there putting sancions, its not like this has been the case since ever
Tyrannical behavior
Well done Venezuela, you don’t need Uncle Sam. The more they isolate the world, the more the world will unite with each other. When the straight of Hurmuz is closed by Iran, they will come back to Venezuela but if they do, make sure you charge them extortionate prices
Exactly Said
UK . Give Venezuela their gold back! Fricken thrives!
EFF ameriKKKa
BRİCS is the future
Shame on US for being trying to interfere everyone. Venezuela is not your puppet.
“We don’t dictate to other countries what to do.” Like don’t get me wrong, Maduro is a massive POS, but American hypocrisy is so gross.
US 🖕
America and its western allies are responsible for unrest everywhere in the world.
West should now come to realise that its not the world. It used to dominate world politics and economy but that star is dying down now. It should come to the realisation that it hurts itself as it try to hurt other countries. Venezuela will surely prevail with or without the west.
So where are the sanctions on Ukraine for refusing to hold elections? Hmmm..
WHY DOES US INTERFERE WITH EVERY COUNTRIES POLITICS.SUCH A BULLY!
funny to see how US thought their sanctions will bring significant impact just like back then
So US planned to install puppet govt. to steal oil, but failed and resort to sanction.
Well done to Venezuela for kicking out US’s puppet
The U.S. seems to intentionally pushing others to join China.
Maduro…the illiterate president
Like US😂
@@12Hitler They were talking about Maduro, not Venezuela as a country.
They only pick on poor countries with a lot oil and natural resources
the white imperialists back at it again with their sanctions…I am beggining to think that this american idiots actually still believe that they control the world
The US is shameless.
Dont worry Russia and China will help.
How dumb of the yanks, as usual.
That’s the very reason many Arab nations cant stand with Palestine
Venezuela time for USA Oil Companies to go home
Those U.S. oil companies are what will help refloat Venezuela’s economy.
But exactly the same undemocratic steps were done in Pakistan as directed by the US. 😅 no democracy isnt the US government concern. Its the shortsighted self interest of the lobbyists.
Just think world with out USA haw lovely it would be villain of the world history will remember
If anything going to destroy USA is this 👉 Arrogance 👈
Where is Guaid0 with the hundreds of million Dollar from Venezuela ⁉️
Still occupiing the Embassy of Venezuela in Washington DC lol.
Repeating the same mistakes again and again 🎉
How are you going to sanction a country that is beyond devastated…
This just props up the oil prices. The US always seems to have an inflation problem. One way to lower demand is to raise prices.
So we’re interfering in other elections again huh?
US to push producer economies China with resources economy Russia and Venezuela together, force them to develop new market, this is really shortsighted.
Even Joe Biden upon all his comedy and foolishness praising killing that it makes him to remember his ice cream even was to win elections again.
Hypocrisy and arrogance will kill Americans
If a nation does not listen to the Americans or work with them shall I say do what ever they say
Then you are terrorists
You are a rough state
You will be slapped with sanctions.
Iran iraq russia vwnenzuela all have oil and US sanctions haha haha
Can’t trust these hypocrite. They put sanctions when thy want and remove when they desire. Poor countries became a punching bag for these
The whole world problem only America government.
They literally mean it’s not fair when their puppets don’t win.
Precisely!
The USA state department is corrupt and criminal. Just absolutely ridiculous and USA people wonder why immigrants are coming to USA.
Wherever there’s rich resources “American and European” G-7 + EU will impose sanctions
END American and European Supremacy
🇺🇸 🇮🇱 = world’s problem
Funny near country and oil no 1in the world. I cant understand logic of USA.
America now is a joker under Biden 😂
Criminzuela is afraid of its own people. Like Putler who won 90+% of nobody’s vote 🤣🤣
Yet they had nothing to say about Pakistan elections 🤷🏾 Wow!! Hypocrisy at full display….
Venezuela signed an agreement in Barbados to hold free and fair elections. Pakistan didn’t have such agreements. That’s the difference. Pakistan didn’t have standards to uphold.
High-level double standards. Israel was not condemned when it bombed the Iranian consulate in Syria.
Election concerns and Israel bombing an Iranian consulate in Damascus are not similar in any way. That’s so far-fetched to consider equivalent.
It s crazy how one country alone can impose sanctions on any country in the world. This shall change one day.
Whenever you hear *are being criticized by international community* it simply means *vvesterners and USted are not impressed* . This is usually not representative of other countries in the rest of the world. Otherwise in what category would Iran, China and Russia that are willing to work and do business with Venezuela belong to? Aren’t they part of international community from Venezuela’s stand point?
🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇨🇳🇱🇧🇰🇵🇵🇸🇻🇪🇻🇪🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺❤❤❤
Tarrest🇺🇸👈️😁😆😂😂🤣
except c0ward rulers of middle east no one takes yankees seriously …even those rulers love there regeim more than anythng else there slavery of united states is linked to that
yeah, no mentioning that this “candidate” is us puppet
the coward USA is miserable enough to use sanctions on countries who oppose the terrorist USA.
All the world should ban America. They are playing god and bringing too much evil to this world. Nobody wants to cover their fake printed money….
But they said US will not interfere in others countries elections…
Who is “they”?
America sanctioned ,Venezuela. China, Russia,Iran,lebanon,Yemen,north Korea,Syria ,belarus,Sudan,cuba,Afghanistan,Libya, Mianmar,
Y shud USA be concerned abt Venezuela politics yet no 1 is concerned abt theirs
Here we go again 😂😂😂
Viva Venezuela. The Enemies of my Enemies are my Friends
The sanctions make the common people suffer
The common Venezuelans are the problem
I just wonder why u.s cant mind their business, allow them to solve their problems.
Reimposing sanctions in Venezuela while Chevron will still working together with Venezuela is it not irony of the century
Ok big talk the come in for you hahaha
Who is USA its better UN closed he’s office America is oil thief
😢😢Did they get their GOLD back… 🤔❤
Every country need to bane American goods and stop exporting to American market. Specially natural resources. Until the bitter taste they feel.
can’t wait until these us narcissists are no longer able to hurt the world for their own private gains.
I love leaders like maduro the don’t be intimidated by the dictatorship of the United States.
Inflation is coming again 😂😂😂
Sanctions are economic terrorism. Venezuela is a sovereign nation. Not US backyard. Hands off Venezuela 🇻🇪
The US government needs to learn to stay out of another country’s business.
🇬🇾❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯💯💯💯🇮🇳✌️
All the Islam Arab countries in the Middle East needed to stand together against all those evil warmongering imperial and other genocidal colonial empire and illegal invader !!!
“over election concerns”? Ha ha ha 😂😛🤪………
No us puppets needed in Venezuela
Mr Yankee destroying economica😢😢😢
Sanctions rarely work, they just make the person they are trying to dislodge stronger.
Is there any democracy in China ?
Why they don’t impose sanctions on China? Because US has no ballz to took up a fight with China.
US playing God will all the countries that produced oil
These Americans 😆😆😆 seem to like being hated
What about their own election, doing anything to keep Trump out
who made usa the imperial leader of the world, this just too much, sanction yourself and stop hurting innocent people from Russia to Zimbabwe to Venezuela.
Dying snake bite is the most dangerous , USA empire is falling apart & they want to the world with them, 34 trillion and keep on printing
Hasn’t aj learned anything. Ain’t about elections. Support your unelected Qatar royals.
Ttump tried a coup which failed. Oil cash went to its people and not western oil firms.
Our next door Trinidad invited thousands of VZ as cheap labour to our regret.
What is it of the US’s business what happens in Venezuela? The Us will not be satisfied until it can steal Venezuela’s oil.
USA state department is as criminal as maduro.
What about Uganda’s president and other African countries. No sanctions on them. Be equal
El petróleo de Venezuela es de Venezuela no de los Estados Unidos y se los venden a quien ellos quieran .Venezuela no es Colonia de EEUU
It’s Time to Break the Yoke of Bias US Authority, that Sanctions Countries that Don’t Bend to Their Twisting!
the only way to help get rid of these Dictator is to encourge people not to vote. because there is no DEMOCROCY Going on.
The last Spanish FOOL with the same words as Maduro, was Panama’s Manuel Noreaiga . He was flown over Panama City in a steel cage under a US military Helicopter to Guantanamo Cuba and served a 20 year jail sentence. Maduro may very well visit that cell shortly!!!
My country which is close to Venezuela signed a gas deal with them however America assume us that this gas deal will not be affected but the problem is shell that is involved in the deal will not be able to use venezuelan contractors which could delay the work
A former bus driver still behaving like a bus driver, only this time taking his entire country on a crazy ride. 😢
Well they got it from Guyana next door to Venezuela another vessel of ths west
