And there's been buzz in the press for some time that maybe various tankers are getting ready to run that blockade, basically try our hand.

I think it's a huge deal.
Maduro is in New York City.
If there's a God in heaven, he'll spend the rest of his life in prison.
Maduro being gone does not mean the regime fell.
And there are a lot of people that are at least as bad, even worse than him, still in power in Caracas, cutting off their assets, cutting off their access to money, impacting not only their capacity to stay in power,

These are all other dimensions that have to be have to be covered.
You know, you wake up in Caracas today.
