You’re not understanding what I said; Maduro had already made an offer to let US companies do exactly what they’re doing right now. Venezuela’s oil company doesn’t have the capital to fully exploit the country’s reserves so they’ve always been open to working with the US and their oil companies. Maduro also understood that that’s what the US was after and was willing to compromise. So yes, it kinda looks like Venezuela is bending the knee, but they’re not doing anything now that Maduro wasn’t willing to do before.
Whatever Maduro did before was clearly not enough for the US and the oil cartel. They don’t want a mutually beneficial agreement. They want to steal everything and leave a few crumbs for the dictator they install to keep them happy and their junta armed.
All we need to know is that Trump received big donations from oil lobbies and then after winning the presidency he used the US military to give his donors what they paid for.
If you think Trump is this stupid then he fooled you.
But they’re not installing a dictator, that’s why I’m saying the operation didn’t do anything. Trump kidnapped Maduro and changed nothing because the same government is still in place, and Venezuela retains the same stance.
Delcy Rodríguez is PSUV and her whole family are ideologically committed Chavistas. As I said, the oil being privatized was something Maduro was already willing to do (and Exxon already had a deal to extract Venezuelan oil, being the only company that was exempt from the sanctions)

They literally put a pre-selected official in full control who then decided to privatize the nationalized oil?
