Well done! Walking the path of sovereignty passes through the prohibition of Western companies to participate in the exploration of strategic mineral resources, because these companies are active corrupters.

I want to make it clear that I do not consider the Iberian Peninsula or the Italian Peninsula as Westerners.

@1 Brasileiro.

You do know that there are UK and US Funds and Institutions that are major shareholders in Repsol?

Also the Norwegian Government also.

It is Western money that is making all this possible.
How do you feel about that?

MADuro will squander the revenue just like the dead-headed and then actually dead Chubby!

I wonder how long MADuro has for this world? Ha, ha.

All profits are destined for off-shore bank accounts, or political vanity projects constructed by Chavista cronies demanding their promised kick-backs. I'm sure the military will get their 'cut' too.

The place is going to implode in the next two years.
I think the December “elections” could be the catalyst.

Glad your family is out because it will be a bloodbath
I hope a lot of Chavistas perish in their foolishness.

Hmm... it's hard to predict. But probably within a few weeks / months after the rigged election in December is my guess.
Then a few months of utter chaos.
After that, who knows...?
