... Instead of Iran and Iraq to open up so their economy can pick, they choose to invest their time and resources in terrorism. Big ups to Saudi, Kuwait, USA and Canada...

Open up? As in r@pe?
Just like Iran was opened up by the British in the 50s , when they conducted a coup against the democratically elected leader Mosaddegh, and installed a puppet called the Shah of Iran, so that they can be stealing their oil for free,

OR just like the Uranium of Nigèr that buys at 80 cents ( God! These are thieves!!) and at world market price it is $200 on the average.

Open up.

Oh. Libya has been opened up o! Perfectly r@ped. Now, the ppl of Libya that had 0 ( !) as in zero debt under Gaddafi, their oil is now being sold for cheap to .

Open up.

Just like Ukraine is being opened up, and Senator Lindsay Graham mistakenly confessed that the REAL AIM of US in Ukraine is the over $10 trillion of resources in Ukraine.
Meanwhile, ( probably) close to 1 million ppl have died in a useless war , triggered NOT BY RUSSIA IN 2022 ( your CNN masters will say otherwise) , but by the US and Asov battalion in 2014.

Open up.

Your mind has been perfectly colonised by the CNN and BBC.

Even though Venezuela has a large oil reserve, it's largely of poor quality and does not attract price in the market

Is it sweet or sour crude?

wow! I mean, just look at what Saudi is doing with their oil.. itz one thing to have resources, itz another to have good leaders to manage the welk

Saudi Arabia hasn't done much with their oil.

Were this a European country, it's per capita income would be $85,000 and sovereign trust fund will hold $5 trillion.

Saudi Arabia and Saudi Arabians basically live off oil. Over 40%, if not 60% of Saudis who work do so for the government. This is simply ridiculous.

It's people are lazy and very entitled. Everyone one wants a cozy government job with a fat salary.

Energy is heavily subsidized. Electricity is very cheap.

All this is greatly draining the Saudi purse and the monarchy would love to end this, but is petrified of violent regime change.

The indulgences can not continue forever.

5 out of those countries are not in the good books of the US and they're either labeled a terrorist sponsor or their economy shattered by IMF and world bank.

Iran....billed terrorist sponsor and on the brinks with the US.
Iraq.....invaded already by the US.
Russia.....at proxy war with the US.
Libya.... invaded already and torn apart by the US and NATO.

Meanwhile the rest of them are paying the US to not get invaded by the same America.
Venezuela.


Yet you are struggling day and night to enter that country.......USA

You wail because of Tinubu,
you will also
lament wen they talking about female gender, and also crying because of a country that's far away.

Oga, which time you normally have for time to make urself feel good?

God1000:
And Venezuela remains very underdeveloped with a lot of poor people despite the huge revenue from oil, though the country is under sanctions from US and EU, but corruption under President Nicolas Maduro is largely responsible.

Look at what oil money has done in Saudi Arabia and UAE.

Oil is a blessing to some countries and a curse to others including Nigeria

So they don't subsidise in Europe or America?

What's the population of Saudis that majority of its citizen won't be working with government

What do they want to use the money's for since you want them to burden their citizens with levies

Funny

Venezuela 🇻🇪 which has the World's largest oil reserves is the poorest country in South America. Lessons for those who believe that crude oil is all it needs to sustain Nigeria.

Also in Venezuela where America is troubling the leadership of that country because former President, Hugo Chavez aligned with Russia who they eventually killed.
Maduro, present president of Venezuela is always being blackmailed and bullied simply because he towed the way of his predecessor.
They don't want Russia ally near them but they are forcing themselves near Russia.

Broaden your knowledge bro. The United States of America is number in many things.

This list is for oil reserves. As for oil producing countries, the United States of America is number 1.
