Mucaaradka Venezuela oo diidan qorshaha Mareykanka ee lahaanshaha saliida

Warbixinno ayaa sheegaya wada-hadallo loogu jiro saamiga saliida ee Orinoco iyo Maracaibo

Mucaaradka Venezuela ayaa ka careysiiyay warbixinno sheegaya in maamulka Trump uu doonayo saamiga weyn ee saliida dalka, kaas oo leh 303bn barrels oo kayd ah. Waxaa lagu tilmaamay heshiis 'dhul-qaad' iyo mid 'xamaasad leh'.

Wada-hadallada saamiga saliida

Wall Street Journal ayaa soo wariyay in saraakiisha Trump ay wada-hadallo 'horay u socda' la galeen mas'uuliyiinta Venezuela si ay u qaataan 'saamiga tooska ah ee in ka badan toban iyo laba goobood oo saliida' oo ay ku jiraan 90bn barrels. Goobaha laga wada-hadallayo waxay ku yaalliin aagga Orinoco Belt iyo Lake Maracaibo.

Bloomberg ayaa xigtay ilo u dhow gorgortanka oo sheegay in mid ka mid ah heshiisyada laga wada-hadallayo uu ahaa kiro 100-sano ah oo dhowr goobood oo saliida ah. Axios ayaa ku andacootay in heshiisku uu noqon doono 'daqiiqad qeexaysa dhaxliga Madaxweyne Trump'.

Diidmada mucaaradka iyo falanqaynta

Ricardo Hausmann wuxuu ku qoray X: 'An illegitimate interim government with an illegitimate hydrocarbons law has no legitimacy to strike this unconstitutional deal. It will be a fiasco for all involved'. Francisco Rodríguez wuxuu ku booriyay golaha qaranka inuu diido wixii uu ugu yeeray 'heshiis dhiig-miiran'.

Luz Mely Reyes, oo ah saxafi caan ah, ayaa si qosol ah ugu yeeray 'dhiibista' hantida dabiiciga ah 'heshiiskii qarniga'. Gregory Brew wuxuu heshiiska la midiyay sida BP, oo markaas Anglo-Persian Oil Company, ay xukuntay saliida Ciraaq iyo Iran bilowgii qarnigii hore.

Xaaladda siyaasadeed ee dalka

Maamulka Trump wuxuu afduubtay Madaxweyne Nicolás Maduro bishii Janaayo, waxaana uu dalka hoggaaminayaa Delcy Rodríguez tan iyo markaas. María Corina Machado, oo ah hogaamiye mucaarad oo la rumeysan yahay inuu ku guuleystay 2024, waa la geynayaa.

Lama dhigin taariikh doorasho cusub, Trump wuxuu ku yidhi wariyayaasha Venezuela 'not really ready'. Siyaasadda 'Donroe Doctrine' waxay ka hortagaysaa saamaynta Shiinaha iyadoo lagu cadaadiyo dhaqaale iyo milatari.

Reports that the Trump administration is negotiating a direct stake in more than a dozen Venezuelan oilfields have triggered a furious backlash from Caracas's opposition, who describe the move as a predatory land grab and a colonial-style surrender of the nation's natural wealth.

A Historic Energy Deal Under Discussion

The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday that Trump officials are in advanced talks with Venezuelan counterparts to secure a direct stake in more than a dozen oilfields containing 90bn barrels, nearly a third of the country's total reserves. Venezuela holds the world's largest proven crude oil reserves at an estimated 303bn barrels, dwarfing Saudi Arabia's 268bn barrels and Iran's 208bn barrels.

Bloomberg, citing sources familiar with the negotiations, revealed that one deal under discussion involves a 100-year lease on several oilfields. The fields being negotiated are located in the Orinoco Belt and Lake Maracaibo regions, areas central to Venezuela's energy economy and strategic importance.

Opposition and Analysts Condemn the Move

An unnamed opposition figure described the negotiations as a massive land grab, stating it is revolting because it is not the United States of the Marshall plan but a rapacious, mafioso United States. Ricardo Hausmann, an exiled former minister, wrote on X that an illegitimate interim government with an illegitimate hydrocarbons law has no legitimacy to strike this unconstitutional deal, calling it a fiasco for all involved.

Gregory Brew, an energy historian and Eurasia Group analyst, compared the reported deal to how BP, then the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, controlled the oil resources of Iraq and Iran at the start of the last century. Brew noted that Anglo-Persian was given a concession by the shah of Iran in 1901 in exchange for what was essentially a bribe to the Persian government, granting sweeping rights and total control over profits.

Political Context and the Donroe Doctrine

Since the Trump administration's special forces raid on Caracas in January that abducted Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela has been led by interim president Delcy Rodríguez, who was Maduro's vice-president and minister of petroleum. Despite some changes, including the freeing of hundreds of political prisoners and talks about reforming the regime-controlled supreme court, no date has been set for a fresh presidential election, and the exiled opposition leader María Corina Machado has been sidelined.

Trump told reporters that Venezuela was not really ready for a vote, while Axios claimed the deal would be a legacy-defining moment for President Trump. The administration's policy is described as the Donroe Doctrine, a 21st-century adaptation of the 19th-century Monroe doctrine, aimed at countering China's growing footprint in the region and imposing US will through economic and military pressure.
