Venezuelan Opposition Leader Criticizes US Oil Deal Praised by Chavista Hardliner

María Corina Machado, Venezuela's leading opposition figure, criticized the US-Venezuela oil agreement announced by Trump, which was praised by Chavista radical Diosdado Cabello. The deal, struck with the interim government of Delcy Rodríguez, highlights ideological realignment amid US intervention. Machado's criticism signals potential fracture in opposition unity and uncertainty over the agreement's political sustainability.
