That makes more sense to me that it’s because of the ramp up in US attacks. What I don’t understand is the OP implication that Maduro is somehow the deciding factor here. Unless Venezuela has a fleet that can stand up to the US and it’s not using it only because Maduro isn’t there, I don’t see how he is the difference.
Venezuela doesn’t do that out of it’s own will, remember they’re military blockaded by US navy at this moment. It’s very likely that’s one of the stolen oil tankers 🤷
That doesn’t address the point about Cuba specifically.
It is in question what’s actually going on with that story. See: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/10668800 Is there a source on the Venezuelan government explicitly approving it to normalize relations with israel? I’d think there’d be some kind of statement for a thing like that if the goal was to have ties.
I mean, the bloomberg source says:
Venezuela is sending its first crude oil cargo to Israel in years as the Latin American country’s exports open up following the capture of its president Nicolas Maduro.
The cargo is being transported to Bazan Group, the Mediterranean country’s top crude processor, people with knowledge of the deal said, asking not to be identified because the information isn’t public.
Why would they be all cagey about it if they’re capitulating?

It has been debunked!
