JANUARY 7 , 2026 (Ozi News Desk) : <\/strong>The US has demanded that Venezuela cut economic ties with Russia, China, Iran, and Cuba if it wants to pump more oil, ABC News reported on Tuesday, citing three people familiar with the White House\u2019s plan.<\/p>\n

US commandos abducted Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, during a nighttime raid on Saturday, in what the oil-rich South American country has denounced as a violation of its sovereignty.<\/p>\n

According to ABC, the White House has demanded that Venezuela partner exclusively with the US on oil production and favor it when selling crude oil. President Donald Trump has insisted that American companies have access to Venezuela\u2019s oil industry, which he claimed was unfairly nationalized by Maduro\u2019s predecessor, Hugo Chavez.<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Trump claimed that \u201cthe interim authorities\u201d of Venezuela would be \u201cturning over\u201d between 30 and 50 million barrels of sanctioned oil to be sold under Washington\u2019s control.<\/p>\n

Delcy Rodriguez, a Maduro ally sworn in as acting president on Monday, declared that neither the US nor any other \u201cforeign agent\u201d would control Venezuela. Authorities in Caracas have demanded the release of Maduro and Flores, both of whom pleaded not guilty to drug trafficking and weapons charges when brought before a New York court on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe military operation, without a declaration of war or a UN Security Council resolution, represents an illegal act of armed aggression of a terrorist nature,\u201d Venezuelan Prosecutor General Tarek Saab said.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the UN Security Council on Monday, Russian envoy Vassily Nebenzia slammed Maduro\u2019s abduction as \u201ca cynical crime that cannot be justified.\u201d Chinese envoy Sun Lei also condemned the US, saying its military intervention in Venezuela poses a threat to peace and security in the region.<\/p>\n
