The United States will make money from Iran in the same way as it does from Venezuela, Trump claims

US President Donald Trump claims that Washington will make money from Iran as well as from oil from Venezuela.
⠀

“We get a lot of money, billions and billions of dollars from Venezuela. The same thing will happen with Iran,” Trump told reporters aboard the presidential plane.

⠀

Last week, the Financial Times estimated that the United States has received more than $13 billion from the sale of Venezuelan oil this year.

Under the terms of the new agreements between the United States and Venezuela, after the change of power in Caracas, oil revenues are accumulated in accounts controlled by Washington.

⠀
On July 8, Trump announced that the cease-fire reached with Iran on the night of June 18 was no longer valid. The US military has carried out several series of attacks on Iran since July 8.
