The U.S. Coast Guard is pursuing an oil tanker involved in transporting oil from Venezuela, according to three U.S. officials, part of an accelerating effort by the Trump administration to block ships from moving the country's crude.
The attempted interdiction comes a day after the U.S. apprehended an oil tanker that wasn't on its sanctions list and after President Trump in a social-media post last Tuesday ordered a "total and complete blockade" of sanctioned tankers going into and out of Venezuela.
