Well… they did.
accused?
the US bragged about it
Two things can be true at the same time, the shadow fleet serving oil across sanctioned countries is breaking maritime agreements and trade protocols as ***the money from this ends up in the drug trade and bit in the hands of the Venezuelan people ***.
Major independent sources do not see these actions as theft and is contested as a trade embargo, and Venezuela is not exactly the Rebellion or resistance from anything.
I don’t understand the bit about “breaking maritime agreements and trade protocols”.
Countries can trade with each other even if the US doesn’t like it. There are no UN-mandated sanctions.
Might does not make right here. (Unless the Star Wars reference was hinting at sarcasm)
