A recently announced “historic agreement” between the United States and Venezuela regarding oil exploitation is facing scrutiny due to inconsistencies and a lack of transparency. Disagreements have emerged between the White House and Miraflores (presidential palace in Caracas, Venezuela) regarding the identities of the signatories. Doubts are also being raised about the dates when the agreement was actually signed. Further complicating matters is the political rehabilitation of a controversial businessman connected to the deal. These issues cast a shadow over the agreement and raise questions about its stability and ultimate success, indicating potential fractures within the pact between the US and Venezuela. The deal's details and implementation remain unclear, fueling skepticism.
