What happened

Donald Trump discussed an oil plan with the government of Venezuela. The agreement involves the U.S. taking an ownership stake in the country's oil resources, which could more than double U.S. oil reserves. Delcy Rodriguez defended the deal, stating it would bring jobs and prosperity to Venezuela and grant the nation around US$19 in profit per barrel of oil produced.
