YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump announced that Venezuela would relinquish 30 to 50 million barrels of oil to the US, worth roughly $2.8 billion at the current market price.

The oil will be sold at its market price, with the proceeds benefiting both the US and Venezuela, according to Trump.

The move is seen as a blow to China, which was previously the top buyer of Venezuela's oil, and may force China to rethink its import reliance on natural resources from Latin American countries.
