While the World Watched Venezuela, China Quietly Won the Oil War | John Mearsheimer (27 minutes)
While headlines focused on sanctions, blockades, and naval deployments, a deeper shift unfolded beyond the spotlight. This episode examines how China restructured the global energy system—quietly, contract by contract—while the United States remained fixated on pressure politics. Drawing on realist logic and power-structure analysis, we explore how oil pricing, settlement mechanisms, and financial architecture—not battlefield spectacle—now determine outcomes.
What you’ll learn:
Why sanctions lost leverage once alternatives became viable
How non-dollar oil trade reshapes global power
The structural logic behind China’s energy strategy
What this shift means for future U.S.–China competition
