Trump's Venezuela Tanker Crackdown Goes Global With Indian Ocean Interdiction
U.S. forces boarded the crude tanker Aquila II in the Indian Ocean after tracking it from the Caribbean, the Department of War disclosed on X early Monday. Officials accuse the vessel of violating Washington's quarantine on sanctioned tankers moving to or from Venezuela.
"When the @DeptofWar says quarantine, we mean it. Nothing will stop DoW from defending our Homeland — even in oceans halfway around the world," DoW wrote on X.
DoW said U.S. forces boarded the tanker Aquila II in the United States Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) area. It claims Aquila II was evading President Trump's quarantine of sanctioned vessels in the Caribbean area.

Javier Milei, im Dezember 2023 als argentinischer Präsident vereidigt, baut mit großem Eifer sein Land zu einem liberalen Musterstaat um. Dabei erhält Argentinien Unterstützung durch die USA, ohne die das Land seine über Jahrzehnte angehäufte Schuldenlast nicht bewältigen könnte.

Trump Signals Openness To China, India Investing In Venezuela's Oil, While Tightening Rules
Authored by Sean Tseng via The Epoch Times,

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One on Jan. 31, Trump said China is “welcome to come in and we'll make a great deal on oil.” He also said the United States is working with India on a plan to buy Venezuelan crude instead of oil from Iran, adding that the basic “concept” has already been agreed upon.
