"She was Nicolas Maduro's vice president. SHE IS A COMMUNIST. SHE IS A MARXIST. She has a LONG history of being VICIOUSLY ANTI-AMERICAN." "Maduro was illegitimate, and Delcy Rodríguez is illegitimate," Cruz added. "NEITHER one of them were elected by the people." Cruz said the oil agreement CANNOT BECOME AN EXCUSE for postponing Venezuela's democratic transition. Cruz also warned that the government-backed structure could DISADVANTAGE PRIVATE AMERICAN OIL COMPANIES. "If you're an American company," Cruz said, competing against a company that is effectively "BUSINESS PARTNERS WITH THE FED GOVT" raises an obvious question: "Is this a fair playing field?" JUST MORE AMERICA LAST POLITICS FROM 2ND TERM ESTABLISHMENT MIGA TRUMP!! Questions are also mounting over the role of the deal crafted by Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The U.S. plan PUTS IN CHARGE of the major oil resources controversial Venezuelan businessman Alejandro Betancourt, who has long been close to the Maduro regime. Betancourt's North American Blue Energy Partners is expected to play THE LEAD ROLE in the arrangement. Betancourt has faced money-laundering investigations in Switzerland, Spain, & the U.S, including scrutiny over an alleged scheme involving funds from Venezuela's state oil company.
