Venezuela’s Primero Justicia party is demanding full transparency regarding new oil agreements with the United States. The party is critical of individuals previously responsible for what they describe as the “devastation” of the Venezuelan oil industry potentially leading its recovery. They fear a return to corruption and mismanagement if these individuals are re-appointed to positions of power. Primero Justicia argues the oil industry’s recovery must not be subjected to improvision or corrupt practices. The party insists on clear accountability in the negotiation and implementation of any deals. This demand comes amid increasing discussions about US investment and involvement in Venezuela’s oil sector, following eased sanctions. The party views transparency as essential for a sustainable and ethical revival of the crucial oil industry.
