We want the people of Venezuela to be able to have the power to be able to choose their own leaders and for them to be able to control their own destiny on it. But I do know Oil has been sanctioned. In fact, the ship that was last season, not the one that was done yesterday, the one before that, President Biden had even put sanctions on that. They were flying under a false flag. They were using fake gps. They're a sanctioned entity on that. But President Biden didn't take any action on that. (07:04–07:13)
