💨 Abstract
The article discusses the strategic importance of oil production in the Americas, particularly under U.S. influence. The U.S., along with Canada, Venezuela, and other Latin American countries, produces nearly 40% of the world's oil. This gives the U.S. significant economic and geopolitical leverage, similar to the power held by Franklin D. Roosevelt. The Trump administration's control over these resources allows it to influence global oil prices and foreign policy, including actions against Iran and Russia.
