Trump and his Washington clowns think they are winning by blockading Venezuelan oil, by seizing ships like pirates, including ships from China to cut off oil supply to China. Would China cut off all supplies of rare earths to America, not just for the weapons industry? Would China cancel Trump's visit to Beijing in April given this hostile act against China? Would China stop buying soya beans and whatever agreed upon in Busan?
For the moment, the American terrorists are still terrorising the Caribbean Sea, committing murders and piracy in defiance of the world and cutting the export of oil from Venezuela. The American terrorists appear to be winning. China will not send warships to protect its tankers and oil supply chain from Venezuela. It would be too costly and the math and geography are against such a move. But it does not really affect China in any big way. China can still get all the oil it wants from many sources.
The blockade is not free, it is very costly to the Americans. How long can America sustain the blockade without hurting its pocket and exhausting the endurance of its soldiers and ageing warships? With all the problems the Americans are facing, Trump is playing poker, trying to bluff his way, to appear very strong militarily.
Not only that Trump is in deep trouble, in bad health and might be assassinated, the Americans and American politics are going against him. Every American knows that Trump is lying and his policies are killing America. The economy is collapsing by self strangulation through tariffs. Goods are not coming in as usual, Americans goods are not selling also because of the high tariffs imposed on the Americans. Companies, factories are closing shop. Unemployment and inflation will keep going up, unstoppable with all the wars, sanctions and high tariffs.
And the bastion of the American dollar is collapsing rapidly. Trump may want to ignore this, but everyday the rest of the world is moving away from the dollar. The dollar must collapse sooner or later. This in turn will collapse Wall Street and all the American banks. And this is gaining momentum. No one is going to keep buying American debt to support this irresponsible and warmongering behaviour of the American terrorists. Venezuela and its friends only need to wait for the Americans to run out of money, of everything.
For the moment Venezuela needs two things. One, China, Russia, Iran and friends must bolster the defence systems of Venezuela to make it very expensive and painful for the Americans to attack. Send in as many missiles and radar systems to be able to take down American warplanes and warships. Should the Americans attack, Venezuela must be able to hit back just as hard, down the warplanes and sink the warships, and better, sink the aircraft carriers. The Venezuelans now have this capability with weapons from its friends. The Venezuelans can hit back!
Economically, China and friends must ensure that the Venezuelan economy survived, life goes on as normal for the Venezuelans. This is a cheaper option than to confront the Americans militarily in the Caribbean. The supply lines to Venezuela for all essential items and goods must continue. This is a war of attrition. With so many countries on Venezuela's side, including Latin American states, Venezuela would out last the American pirates in the high seas. Fight an economic war with the Americans instead of a hot military war. Supply chains can be opened through neighbouring countries of Venezuela.
When the dollar collapses, the Americans will be walking around naked. All the banking and finance systems are in place to isolate the evil Americans. And better if countries of the Global South just quietly cut off or reduce trade with the Americans. The American economy cannot survive for long without trade, without selling its goods and without goods going into America.
This is a crucial time for the rest of the world to unite behind Venezuela to squeeze the balls of the American terrorists by supporting Venezuela with inaction. China, Russia, Iran and some more able countries can do the heavy lifting. The world united against the lonely American terrorists cannot lose this economic war against a bankrupt America, drowning under a mountain of debt and without a manufacturing base to sustain is wasteful and wasting wars all over the world. Bleed the Americans dry! The blockade is hurting the Americans more than the Venezuelans. Just like imposing tariffs, the Americans are hurting themselves everyday, bleeding in the Caribbean.
PS. Not a single country is on the side of the American terrorists!
