The socialist-driven economic and humanitarian crisis ravaging the beautiful country of Venezuela should give every American pause. It is not just that this ideology, which has failed the people of this South American nation, is now establishing a footing here in the United States—but it’s also because our beacon of hope that shines throughout Latin America is being threatened by America’s adversaries.
As it stands, Venezuela sits on the world’s largest energy reserves—a massive oil field of 500 billion barrels by some estimates. For a hundred years, American companies have worked in Venezuela to create a tremendous amount of wealth that, for the larger part of that century, made Venezuela the richest and most stable country in South America
In order for Venezuela to economically rebuild towards its former glory, it will need to rely on its natural resources—and the American technical expertise to extract it. At an estimated value of $25 trillion, these resources represent a new future for the country and its 30 million citizens.
Trump has been wise to allow our energy companies to maintain their presence because it protects American national security. The threat of Russian and Chinese entities replacing American companies certainly does not benefit the Venezuelan people, but it also would provide an economic windfall for foreign interests and give them a foothold in our own hemisphere. That cannot happen.
By supporting the continued presence of American energy companies in Venezuela, President Trump is ensuring America’s beacon of hope will continue to shine throughout the nation as the fight for freedom and democracy endures.
