Defiant Trump Mulls Over Plans to Use Private Military Companies to Safeguard Venezuela Oil

U.S President Donald Trump and his administration are preparing to deploy private military contractors, rather than U.S troops, to protect oil and energy infrastructure in Venezuela.

White House officials have confirmed that the White House is intensively discussing plans to use private security firms to guard critical oil assets in Venezuela.

These firms, especially those with previous regional experience and ties to Trump-era allies, are reportedly positioning to bid for lucrative contracts.

Their role would be to safeguard pipelines, refineries, and export terminals—key branches in the international energy supply chain.

More unaccountable mercs, and Trump cronies go the head of the line.

Deeply ingrained corruption. Democracy poison.

That did not work in Iraq. It will not work in Venezuela.
