Connection thesis
Exxon potentially expanding oil production in Venezuela (356941) concurrently with increased political pressure on Cuba (356931) suggests a complex geopolitical landscape where energy interests and political tensions intertwine. If Exxon deal materializes it is highly probable US is attempting to offset global energy supply issues and exert influence over regimes like Cuba by controlling energy sources.
