The cronies in Caracas win over Washington

The Trump administration's secret oil deal with Venezuela's ruling clique threatens to undermine the country's natural resources and the populace's right to self-determination. This controversial move risks legitimizing the corrupt regime in Caracas while potentially enriching its loyalists at the expense of the Venezuelan people. Such actions not only jeopardize Venezuela's sovereignty but also highlight the troubling trend of prioritizing geopolitical interests over human rights. This situation underscores the urgent need for a more ethical approach to international diplomacy.
