Venezuelan factions unite in opposition to Trump-led oil control proposal
Valor Econômico·VE · US·3 days ago
President Trump announced a purported agreement granting the U.S. majority control over 65 billion barrels of Venezuela's proven oil reserves, claiming it will boost U.S. supplies and lower gasoline prices. The claim lacks corroborating evidence and details are unverified, raising questions about feasibility given Venezuela's political and legal constraints. If real, it would be a major geopolitical and energy shift; if not, it is a significant policy signal.
