Trump administration officials are scrambling to win over skeptical lawmakers and oil executives as they outline an unprecedented plan to take control of Venezuela’s oil sales following the ouster of former President Nicolás Maduro. The strategy involves seizing and selling millions of barrels of sanctioned Venezuelan oil, with the US temporarily controlling the revenue while promising it will benefit the Venezuelan people. Led by Energy Secretary Chris Wright and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the plan aims to stabilize the country, cut off rivals like Russia and China, and attract US firms to rebuild Venezuela’s collapsed energy sector. However, major questions remain over legal authority, revenue oversight, security, and long-term stability. Oil companies are wary of investing billions without clear guarantees, while lawmakers warn the vague, evolving approach could entangle the US in a risky and politically costly foreign policy gamble.
