Trump says US reaches deal with Venezuela to control 65 billion barrels of country’s oil reserves

President Donald Trump announced that the United States has reached an oil agreement with Venezuela, granting the U.S. control over more than 65 billion barrels of Venezuela's proven oil reserves. According to Trump, this deal would 'more than double' U.S. oil reserves, boost supply, and reduce gas prices for Americans. The agreement involves a private joint venture, with the U.S. securing 55% effective output of the new entity. Venezuelan interim president Delcy Rodríguez praised the deal, stating it would enhance Venezuela's status as an energy producer and benefit its economy. A White House official confirmed the arrangement includes long-term concessions for a private company, which will operate under a partnership involving the U.S. government and local operators. Senator Marco Rubio described the deal as a significant victory for both nations.
