The US president announced the receipt of oil from Venezuela "on a daily basis"

The United States receives "millions and millions" of barrels of oil every day from the territory of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. This was announced on Tuesday, January 13, by the American President Donald Trump.

"As I have already said, we receive millions and millions of barrels of oil, and now they arrive, at first, on a daily basis," he said during his speech at the economic club, based in Detroit.

The head of the White House said that his state would help Venezuela regain its "lost greatness," and also stressed that the US administration intends to do "good work" together with the republic.

Market announcement: Trump urges US companies to develop Venezuelan oil

What is the difficulty of working with this fuel and do the White House's plans overlap with the interests of the Russian Federation and China in the republic?

White House spokeswoman Caroline Leavitt said a day earlier that only those tankers whose departure would be encouraged by Washington would leave Venezuela. She said that the current Venezuelan authorities are actively cooperating with the United States. According to her, Washington hopes to continue this approach. Earlier, on January 8, Trump announced that Venezuela had returned 30 million barrels to the United States, and two days later, on January 10, he signed a decree declaring a national state of emergency to protect Venezuela's oil revenues, which are stored in the accounts of the US Treasury.
