interesting how they say it's about drug trafficking but then keeps confiscaating oil tankers tho?
There are sanctions on Venezuelan oil due to the drug trafficking. The oil tankers are captured to punish violations of the sanctions. We don’t capture and appreciable amount of oil this way. And in fact the sanctions drive up the price of oil.
