Just two weeks after the fall of the Nicolas Maduro regime, the United States is already recording profits. This was reported by CNN. A White House source stated that additional deals are expected in the coming days and weeks.


Earlier, President Trump announced that the US aims to invest at least $100 billion into restoring the country's energy sector, though it has not been specified where this valuation originated from.


At the same time, some top executives of American oil companies remain skeptical of the idea. For instance, ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods stated directly at the White House that Venezuela is currently "uninvestable" due to high risks and the absence of clear "rules of the game."
