In August 2019, the aforementioned companies stopped loading crude oil and fuel at Venezuelan ports. Previously, the United States expanded sanctions on Venezuela&#8217;s National Petroleum Corporation to extend the scope to any company that trades with this state-owned enterprise.<br \/>\nReuters said that the sanctions were part of the Trump administration\u2019s attempt to overthrow Venezuelan President Maduro, but they failed to completely prevent the South American country\u2019s oil exports. The clients of Venezuela\u2019s Petroleum Corporation have increased their exports to Malaysia. In Malaysia, most of Venezuelan crude oil can continue to flow to China after transferring hands and passing through trade intermediaries through the transfer of maritime cargo between ships.<br \/>\nThe report mentioned that the spokesperson of the US Treasury Department also declared on the 25th local time that those involved in Venezuelan oil industry activities may face sanctions risks.<br \/>\nSince 2019, the United States has continued to put pressure on Venezuela to prohibit individuals or legal persons from other countries from importing Venezuelan crude oil. In April of this year, the United States dispatched warships to Venezuela\u2019s territorial waters under the pretext of &#8220;drug control.&#8221; The Venezuelan government said that the United States was imposing a naval blockade and military threats against Venezuela. On June 2 this year, the United States announced sanctions on four international shipping companies that transport Venezuelan crude oil. Venezuelan Foreign Minister Arreaza said on social media Twitter that the US move was a crime against humanity. In addition, the Venezuelan government has repeatedly called for the removal of economic sanctions against Venezuela during the epidemic, and emphasized that Venezuela, as a sovereign country, has the right to conduct free trade with other countries and should not be subject to outside interference.<\/p>\n<div class=\"37c28470d9d6d3cb9ff74e663adb766a\" data-index=\"2\" style=\"float: none; margin:0px 0 0px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3594734025006597\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to World Wide Web, British Reuters news agency reported on the 27th that Venezuela&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[272],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10609","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-today"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10609","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10609"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10609\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10609"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10609"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.whatchina.cn\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10609"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
