Women’s tennis legend Martina Navratilova took to social media on Saturday to share her thoughts on the U.S. intervention in Venezuela, supporting the idea of criminal sanctions on American companies that try to take oil from the country<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Navratilova praised<\/a> a post on X suggesting the sanctions, writing “love it” in response to journalist Lauren Windsor’s post that read, “Any American oil company that expropriates oil from Venezuela should be sanctioned by the International Criminal Court.”<\/p>\n

Navratilova later shared further thoughts about the operation that resulted in the capture of Venezuelan President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro, with President Donald Trump<\/a> saying that the U.S. will “run” Venezuela until a transition of power is complete.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Holding a country hostage while pillaging its natural resources. Next stop- either Greenland or Nigeria,” Navratilova wrote in response to a thread that included a report about Wall Street firm officials in the finance, energy and defense sectors visiting Venezuela after the recent strikes.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Roughly twice the size of California, Venezuela holds the world\u2019s largest proven oil reserves<\/u><\/a>. At an estimated 300 billion barrels, about 20% of the global total and nearly four times U.S. reserves, that endowment dwarfs that of any other nation.<\/p>\n

Venezuela\u2019s stockpile, now larger than those of energy titans like Saudi Arabia, has become a central flashpoint in the geopolitical struggle surrounding the country\u2019s future.<\/p>\n

\u2018WE BUILT VENEZUELA\u2019S OIL INDUSTRY:\u2019 TRUMP VOWS US ENERGY RETURN AFTER MADURO CAPTURE<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Venezuela\u2019s reserves are dominated by heavy and extra-heavy crude that requires specialized equipment, constant maintenance and advanced refining capacity, much of which has deteriorated after years of underinvestment and skilled labor losses.<\/p>\n

During his address on Saturday, Trump accused Venezuela\u2019s socialist government of seizing American energy assets and dismantling an industry built with U.S. investment.<\/p>\n

“Venezuela unilaterally seized and sold American oil, American assets and American platforms, costing us billions and billions of dollars,” Trump said. “They took all of our property.”<\/p>\n

“We built Venezuela\u2019s oil industry with American talent, drive and skill, and the socialist regime stole it from us,” he added.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Trump added that U.S. energy<\/u><\/a> companies would play a key role in rebuilding the Latin American country\u2019s oil sector.<\/p>\n

“We are going to have our very large United States oil companies go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken oil infrastructure and start making money for the country,” he said.<\/p>\n
