Americas2 sources2 countries🔦 Under-reported31m ago
United States President Donald Trump announced on Sunday that the U.S. will utilize oil obtained from a recently struck deal with Venezuela to replenish the nation's Strategic Petroleum Reserve. According to the statements, the reserve has faced significant drawdowns in recent years as it was used to address global supply disruptions and high fuel prices.
Trump stated that the process to "top out" the petroleum reserves will begin shortly. The initiative follows the arrangement between the U.S. and Venezuela, directing the acquired crude specifically toward rebuilding the strategic emergency stockpile.
