Iran breaks the blockade again

At the peak of the escalation that the United States is practicing against Iran, the latter insists on continuing to support its ally Venezuela, avoiding the rules that Washington seeks to install in Latin America. In this context, the US agency “Bloomberg” revealed that Tehran sent its largest fleet of tankers to Caracas (the size of ten ships), defying the US sanctions that strangle this country. According to agency sources, the Iranian ships, after unloading their fuel, will help export Venezuelan crude.

Although neither Tehran nor Caracas confirmed the above, the move does not seem surprising, especially since Iran had already sent two shipments of gasoline in May and October to help Venezuela overcome the fuel crisis. The measure reflects the statements of Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif, who confirmed from Caracas last month that the two allies “will not allow Washington to exercise its arrogance”, recalling that his country has endured “US pressure for 40 years, and if We would like to give up, we would have done it a long time ago. ” . This was confirmed by the Venezuelan Foreign Minister, Jorge Ariza, last week, when he said that “no one” can stop the development of Venezuelan-Iranian relations “, explaining that” the two countries share objectives and enemies, while the economy of each one complements the economy of the other. “
