YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump has stated that the United States will keep oil seized from Venezuelan-linked tankers. On the surface that sounds simple — but in reality, it touches international law, sanctions enforcement, and hundreds of millions of dollars in energy assets.

Here’s what we know.

Large ocean-going crude tankers typically carry around 2 million barrels of oil. At a benchmark price of roughly $70 per barrel, that means a single full tanker holds about $140 million worth of crude. With two tankers reportedly seized so far, the combined value of the cargo alone is estimated at about $280 million.
