This marks the second interception in recent weeks that the United States has gone after a tanker near Venezuela. "The United States will continue to pursue the illicit movement of sanctioned oil that is used to fund narco-terrorism in the region," Noem said in the statement. "We will find you, and we will stop you." The Maduro-led Venezuelan government called the tanker interception a "serious act of international piracy." According to Reuters, U.S. Coast Guard officials said they are pursuing a third oil tanker in the region that is alleged to be "flying a false flag and under a judicial seizure order."
