In light of Erik Prince being lit up by Bloomberg/Reuters/AP/NYTimes for his weird flip flop meeting with Maduro's VP on Nov 19/20 2019. Let's take a little trip inside the war for Venezuela being fought over control of oil. #OroYPlato nytimes.com/aponline/2019/…
We would think that Citgo is a U.S. company, it is not. Fifty % of Citgo was sold to Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA) in 1986, the remainder was snapped up in 1990. Citgo is essentially a parastatal that controls the socialist nation’s existence. 2014 vs 2019 #NotGood
