The chessboard just shook.
Russian industrial heavyweight Oleg Deripaska has issued a stark warning: if the United States secures influence over Venezuela’s oil, the global energy balance could tilt dramatically — and Russia could be one of the biggest losers.
This isn’t noise.
This is energy warfare. 🔥
🛢️ WHY VENEZUELA IS THE PRIZE OF THE CENTURY
Venezuela isn’t just another oil producer — it’s the oil king.
🔹 300+ billion barrels of proven reserves
🔹 Largest oil reserves on Earth
🔹 Bigger than Saudi Arabia
🔹 Bigger than anyone
Now imagine this 👇
🇺🇸 U.S. influence in Venezuela
➕
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia (longtime U.S. ally)
➡️ Nearly 50% of global oil reserves under U.S. influence
That’s not policy.
That’s power.
🇷🇺 WHY RUSSIA IS SWEATING 😬
For Russia, oil and gas aren’t optional — they’re the economic backbone.
⚠️ Deripaska’s fear is simple but brutal:
• More U.S. control = more oil supply
• More supply = lower prices
• Lower prices = crushed Russian revenues 💥
Layer this on top of: ❌ Sanctions
❌ Restricted trade routes
❌ Limited financial access
And suddenly, Moscow’s room to maneuver shrinks fast.
No tanks needed.
No missiles launched.
Just barrels. 🛢️🛢️🛢️
🌍 THE REAL GAME: OIL = EVERYTHING
This isn’t just about energy.
Oil controls: ✔ Inflation
✔ Currencies 💵
✔ Trade balances
✔ Political alliances
✔ Global stability
Whoever controls oil flow controls the rules of the global economy.
And Deripaska is saying it out loud:
👉 If Washington wins Venezuela, the game tilts hard.
👀 MARKETS ARE STILL ASLEEP…
Stocks. Crypto. FX.
Most traders are watching charts — not the map 🗺️
But geopolitics always hits markets late and fast.
When oil moves, everything moves.
⚡ Energy is power
⚡ Power shapes markets
⚡ And the board may have just flipped
Stay sharp.
This isn’t a headline — it’s a warning.
