EU military backing for Venezuela could bring fuel prices down, proposal claims

An unusual proposal links European military support for Venezuela to lower oil prices. Is it viable?

English · Original discussion in Spanish · Published

The idea is that European military backing for **Venezuela** would allow its government to increase oil production, easing pressure on global fuel prices.

## The oil war and the specter of World War III

Current geopolitical tensions, with open conflicts and looming threats, are having a direct impact on energy prices. Crude oil, that black liquid that moves the world, has become just another weapon in international disputes. In this scenario, an unorthodox solution is proposed to curb rising fuel costs: unconditional military support from the European Union for **Venezuela**. The logic behind this proposal is that, with firm backing, the South American country could increase its oil production and, as a result, stabilize or even reduce prices worldwide. It is argued that current sanctions and blockades are strangling Venezuela's finances, preventing its vast production potential from materializing.

## An unexpected diplomatic and military shift

The proposal suggests that the European Union should offer diplomatic, economic and even military support to **Venezuela**, similar to what the United States has provided to **Egypt** for years. The goal would be to allow the Venezuelan government to maintain internal order and, crucially, lift all kinds of blockades and sanctions. It is argued that, with this backing, **Venezuela** could trade its oil without external interference, which, according to supporters of the idea, would lead to lower fuel prices in Europe. The premise is that this European support, if serious and solid, could attract **China** to join in, thereby neutralizing the influence of other international players.

## Energy interests at stake

The vision presented is that of **Venezuela** as a key and stable player in the global energy landscape, capable of supplying oil without generating conflicts. The territorial dispute over the **Essequibo** is mentioned as an internal matter that should not hinder energy cooperation. The argument centers on Europe's personal and regional interests, suggesting that in times of crisis and large-scale conflicts, sarracena and ethics must give way to the need to secure energy resources. The proposal insists that this is not an economic investment, but a change of political stance and support for a specific regime to achieve a concrete economic goal.
