Iranian Vice Minister of Economic Affairs Mohsen Kousheshtabar confirmed that Nicolás Maduro's regime has given Iran one million hectares [2,471,054 acres] of farmland in Venezuela while the world faces a shortage of strategic reserves.
Nicolás Maduro visited Iran in June where he held conversations with his Iranian counterpart Ebrahim Raisi.
It was said that both nations signed a 20-year "strategic cooperation" agreement "in all areas".
Along with Russia, China, Cuba, and Turkey, Iran is one of the Venezuelan regime's main allies. And, as with Caracas, the theocracy is also subject to harsh sanctions from the United States. The bilateral relations between these two oil producers were already close during the rule of Hugo Chávez and have been further strengthened under his successor Maduro.

Leftists will make deals with the devil to remain in power. In part, because they consider him to be a natural ally.

Which explains us letting China and Bill gates take over our farmland. At least Iran probably actually wants food… bill gates just wants to let it sit fallow.

I suppose the Monroe Doctrine is a bit out of date, but it doesn’t feel right to have Iran gain a foothold over here.

The weakening of the USA has caused a serious shift in world power. This is by design. The objective of the cabal which controls Biden's puppet-strings is the destruction of the USA. Even they are surprised at the ease of their successes.
Their successes are due to the large fifth column within America composed of the cabal's useful idiots. They are Democrats, RINOs, and the rest of the woke mob, the news media serving as its propaganda machine, federal agencies serving as its secret police.
"We dare not tempt them with our weakness."
John KennedyThat's exactly what we have done.

Venezuela, whose farming, oil production and pretty much everything else has been destroyed by Marxism is taking money from Iranians who are buying…farmland.
Oh, that’ll work out well.

The “death to America” crowd will now have a base in the Americas and our corrupted politicians have left the border open long enough for plenty of sleepers to make their way in.

The US is doing the same with China. Our marxist regime is allowing China to buy up US farmland.

I’m sure they will be doing a lot of farming.

The Monroe Doctrine died years ago when Carter let the Chinese into the Panama Canal.

“Ceding” is a bit more final than “selling”. Does this land become sovereign Iranian territory?

Does this land become sovereign Islamic (Iranian) territory?

According to the Koran
