Trump says US will keep or sell oil seized from Venezuela

Donald Trump stated that the US will keep or sell oil seized from Venezuelan tankers, as well as the vessels themselves. The Trump administration has accused Venezuela of using oil revenues to fund drug-related crime and has been building up its military presence in the region, conducting strikes on alleged Venezuelan drug-smuggling boats. The US also doubled the reward for information leading to Maduro's capture, while Maduro condemned the seizures as "piracy" and called for the US to focus on its own country's affairs.
