The decision of the president of the United States is a clear message to the different power factors. Towards the regime of Nicols Maduro , of course. Towards Juan Guaid , to whom he says he is still on his side. The decree points to these elements:

This Trump reaction has to do with the intense work carried out by Juan Guaid's team in Washington, by the Special Prosecutor, Jos Ignacio Hernndez, but also responds that a few weeks ago senators and congressmen from key areas in Louisiana and Texas led a letter to Trump, advocating Citgo. As is known, Citgo is an emblematic company of Louisiana and Texas.

1-Towards the bondholders. Because in the market it is heard that there are Russian investors behind the PDVSA 2020 bond.

2-Because in the market it is now said that behind Crystallex there is a great Chinese businessman.

As that Donald Trump understands that armoring to Citgo it protects Juan Guaid and ensures that Chinese or Russians do not take this strategic asset.

It is already known that this November 21 Donald Trump sum another measure that seeks to protect the assets of Venezuela in the United States. The decree states that any claim against Venezuela that seeks to take an asset position in the United States must have an explicit authorization from the State Department . Claims may come through judgments for unpaid debts and grant creditors power to seize Venezuelan assets in the United States, primarily Citgo. The decree says verbatim:

Any transfer that affects the ownership of the asset is prohibited without a prior license from the State Department.

This measure is one more layer of protection for Citgo, thereby shielding the government of Juan Guaid in this matter that now will not have the distraction and pressure of international creditors.

We can conclude then that Donald Trump did his part. Now we have to solve that other part. The political issue, the departure of Nicolas Maduro and the call for new presidential elections.

Washington's message seems clear: Here is Citgo, it is protected. Other assets are protected. With which they will begin to build Venezuela again. But the internal political problem must be solved by you.
