President guarantees that Venezuela "maintains property and sovereignty" over oil

Venezuela's interim president, Delcy Rodríguez, defended that the country maintains property and sovereignty over its oil resources, despite Donald Trump announcing that the US would take control of 65 billion barrels of reserves. The 25-year agreement provides for the development of 17 strategic fields with investment exceeding $100 billion and a production target of more than 1.5 million barrels per day. Rodríguez stated that Venezuela will receive 16% royalties and 34% income tax, totaling approximately $19 per barrel sold, which could represent $209.3 billion over the course of the agreement. The opposition party Union and Change criticized the lack of transparency and argued that the agreement should be made public.
