Donald Trump stated that the oil extracted under an agreement with Venezuela will be used to fill the United States' strategic petroleum reserve. The American president made this promise as part of an agreement reached with the Venezuelan government.
The agreement allows for the extraction of Venezuelan oil that will be directed to the North American strategic reserves. This measure comes in a context of concerns about the United States' energy security.
Trump stated that Venezuela has significant oil reserves and that the agreement benefits both countries. The American administration thus intends to reduce dependence on other foreign oil sources.
The agreement with Venezuela represents a shift in North American energy policy. Trump guarantees that Venezuelan oil will contribute to strengthening the United States' position in the global energy landscape.
