Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported25m ago
The administration of United States President Donald Trump is reportedly in discussions with Venezuela's interim government regarding a potential U.S. ownership stake in the South American nation's vast petroleum resources. The talks, which were reported on Thursday by the news site Axios and distributed via Agence France-Presse, involve more than a dozen officials and stakeholders.
According to the reporting, acquiring a stake in Venezuelan oil could significantly impact U.S. energy reserves. Specifically, the proposed arrangement has the potential to more than double U.S. oil reserves at a time when the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve has fallen to a 40-year low.
