U.S. President Donald Trump made statements regarding the new process underway with Venezuela and energy-focused cooperation steps.

Assessing the steps taken by the Venezuelan administration, Trump said: “Venezuela is releasing a large number of political prisoners as a sign of seeking peace. This is a very important and wise move.”

Referring to the scale of energy cooperation between the two countries, Trump stated: “The United States and Venezuela are cooperating well to rebuild oil and natural gas infrastructure in a much larger, better, and more modern way.”

Sharing changes in military plans and investment targets, Trump concluded: “Thanks to this cooperation, I canceled the previously expected second wave of attacks; it appears there will be no need for it, however, for security reasons all ships will remain in place. Major oil companies will invest at least $100 billion, and I will meet with them at the White House today.”
