And this is what President Trump is talking about when he says those companies need to be reimbursed.
And last but not least, it's important to say that the Trump administration has cracked down on migration as well, migration across the southern border.
In the last few years, Venezuelans have made up a big part of the people who have been flowing across the U.S.
southern border into the United States.
President Trump has claimed that those are drug traffickers, but there is not proof that the vast majority of those who have entered are drug traffickers.
Regardless, they want to stop that flow as well.
That's a question many journalists have been asking President Trump, and we don't have an entirely clear picture yet.
What we understand is that President Trump and his administration want to be able to dictate to Venezuela's interim leader, Delsi Rodriguez, what she does.
They want her to meet a few key demands.
I mentioned drug trafficking.
They want to see the flow of drugs stop.
They also want to see U.S.
companies be able to enter Venezuela and extract oil again.
And they've also talked about clamping down on the flow of migration.
But really, how that will look is not clear.
President Trump has said he's not afraid of boots on the ground again.
There could be further U.S.
military intervention if the interim president doesn't comply.
But right now, it looks like creating a U.S.-friendly government in Venezuela that will meet the Trump administration's demands.
He certainly has.
