U.S. Secures Massive Venezuelan Oil Deal | US News

from US News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

The U.S. just struck a historic $65 billion oil deal with Venezuela, announced by President Trump and brokered by Rubio and Hegseth—aiming to stabilize gas prices amid Iran tensions and dwindling reserves. While hailed as a bold “America First” move that could inject $100 billion in private investment and revive Venezuela’s economy, skeptics warn the country’s crumbling infrastructure and past instability make this a risky gamble for American companies. The real test? Whether this deal can deliver on its promises—or just add another chapter to a fraught energy diplomacy saga.
