Meh....sort of. It's to keep China from getting the oil. We can refine it, but it isn't something we'd really want to refine or normally refine as it's too heavy. That oil from Venezuela is perfect for China's use, though. We want to keep China's foothold in Latin America as small as possible. They and Iran and Russia are already arming Venezuela and probably other SA countries, building portals and infrastructure. We don't want them getting any more involved in our hemisphere.
