Chevron owns some oil production in Venezuela. Trump put sanctions on that in Feburary. If they restart that it would probably be around the 50million barrel mark this year and more in the coming years.
Just to get me clear on something, did he ever day why US “owns” this oil? Like did he actually gove a reason or its a “IOU i made up”?

EDIT: If he is talking about that.
We’re here to liberate you! JK we wanted to steal the oil. A story as old as time.
To paraphrase Omar from The Wire, “Oil ain’t got no owners, only vendors.”
