United States President Donald Trump announced a historic oil agreement with Venezuela on Friday, August 28, describing it as the largest petroleum deal in world history. According to the announcements, the pact aims to double the oil reserves of the United States and ensure long-term American access to a portion of South America's reserves.

As part of the initiative, Trump instructed Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth to collaborate with the Venezuelan president. The reports note that Washington currently oversees Caracas's crude oil exports, tying the newly declared alliance directly to ongoing U.S. supervision and supply security.
