Trump eyes Iran oil, hints at Venezuela-style US control after war

 In a bold statement, President Trump hinted that the U.S. could take control of Iran’s oil resources following a potential conflict. He likened this situation to the American involvement in Venezuela’s oil industry. Trump anticipates the war may end before the November elections, asserting that Iran desires an agreement, yet only if it meets U.S. criteria. This strategy connects the U.S. presence to Iran’s oil wealth and security aspirations. In a bold statement, President Trump hinted that the U.S. could take control of Iran’s oil resources following a potential conflict.
