The President of the United States, Donald Trump, said the United States would leave Iran unless they decide to keep the country's oil. The statement was made in a comparison with the situation in Venezuela.
Trump made the statement during a visit to the state of Ohio, where he spoke about his foreign policy regarding Iran. The reference to Venezuela suggests a comparison with how the United States has been dealing with the Venezuelan crisis.
Trump's position regarding Iran has been one of the most controversial of his Presidency. The Iranian nuclear agreement, from which the United States withdrew during his term, has been a constant point of discord.
The possibility of the United States keeping Iranian oil raises questions about the intentions of the Trump administration in the Middle East region and its relations with international allies.
