The United States' oil reserves are at a more than 40-year low, a situation that concerns the American administration. President Donald Trump announced that he intends to start replenishing these reserves through an agreement with Venezuela.
This agreement involves the importation of Venezuelan oil to the United States. Venezuela has large oil reserves and has been a historical supplier of crude to the American market.
However, the agreement has a controversial partner. The article does not specify who this partner is, only noting that their involvement in the agreement raises questions.
The agreement comes in a context of urgent need for the US to diversify its oil import sources, given that national reserves are at their lowest point in more than four decades.
