But this political situation in Venezuela absent Maduro doesn't appear to have changed at all.
The regime is still there.
It's not regime change.
It it isn't even regime decapitation because Maduro was replaceable.
And they filled his shoes with somebody else, and the administration seems
Perfectly fine with that.
So I I think you can think of it in stages.
So the first would be lifting the blockade.
They would have to see that.
They would have to see the US.
Saying publicly Venezuela can export oil again, because no one's going to want to go in and spend money in Venezuela if they can't be guaranteed access to foreign markets, right?
I think the the US has been trying to signal that the blockade is about stopping sanctioned tankers, but it's been indiscriminate in the sense that it hasn't been specifically connected to what the US is clearly trying to do in Venezuela, which is, you know, remove Maduro and exert more pressure on the government.
So the blockade would have to be lifted.
And then sanctions would have to be lifted, right?
Venezuela remains under heavy sanction, the Maduro government remains under sanction.
And international oil companies, Western companies, aren't going to want to go into a country where they're exposed to sanctions risk.
They're just not going to be interested.
Even if the price were to go up and even if
the numbers started to make a little bit more sense.
That's still too great of a risk to take on at this time.
