Will Russian oil be the biggest winner in the US - Israel war on Iran ?

Analysts suggest Russia is a primary beneficiary, with countries like India and China increasing purchases of Russian crude due to supply vacuums and eased US sanctions.
Venezuela
The Venezuelan crisis represents one of the most severe modern economic and political collapses outside of active warfare, triggering a profound humanitarian emergency and the largest mass displacement in Western Hemisphere history. Stemming from prolonged institutional decay, hyperinflation, and contested electoral cycles, the crisis has destabilized the broader Latin American region as millions of citizens flee across borders. The standoff between government forces and opposition factions continues to draw international scrutiny, sanctions, and diplomatic interventions. Reporting from within remains highly restricted, making independent verification of developments challenging. The situation evolves alongside shifting geopolitical alignments and fluctuating global energy markets.
