The United States pointed to China's ability to purchase Venezuelan oil on market terms

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on January 28 that the United States is not against China's purchases of oil from Venezuela, but on market terms.

"China can buy Venezuelan oil," Rubio said at a Senate hearing.

According to him, Beijing, however, will have to purchase oil on the same terms as the rest of the world.

On January 8, American journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner Seymour Hersh said that the US military operation in Venezuela was aimed not only at changing the government in the country, but also at limiting the supply of Venezuelan oil to China. According to him, the next target of pressure from Washington may be Iran, which is also one of the key oil suppliers to China and has the fourth largest reserves in the world.
