US, Venezuela announce 'historic' oil deal

U.S. President Donald Trump announced a deal with Venezuela's interim president, Delcy Rodriguez, to take control of part of Venezuela's oil reserves, calling it 'the biggest oil deal in world history.' The agreement, negotiated by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, aims to provide the U.S. with access to 65 billion barrels of oil, which would more than double U.S. oil stocks. The deal is described as a public-private partnership involving U.S. oil companies and could bring $100 billion in private investment and over $209 billion in tax revenue for Venezuela. The move follows the U.S.-backed ousting of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro, who is currently detained in New York facing drug-related charges. Venezuela, despite having the world's largest proven oil reserves, struggles with low production due to mismanagement and sanctions.
