AGP Executive Report
Last update: 6 hours agoUS–Venezuela Oil Deal: President Donald Trump says the U.S. has secured “majority control” of more than 65 billion barrels of Venezuela’s proven crude reserves in what he calls the “biggest oil deal in world history,” negotiated with interim President Delcy Rodríguez and led by Marco Rubio and Pete Hegseth, with Venezuela saying the pact covers 17 strategic fields, over $100 billion in investment, and more than $209 billion in expected tax revenue. Open Questions: Multiple reports note key details are still missing, including which companies will operate, how control works in practice, and whether Venezuela’s legal and constitutional hurdles could slow or reshape the plan. Fuel Prices Pressure: The announcement lands as U.S. gasoline costs remain a political headache, and markets are also reacting to Fed signals and Middle East energy risks, with analysts warning any real output boost from Venezuela could take years.
