President Trump announced that he canceled a second wave of attacks against Venezuela after the country released political prisoners.
“Venezuela is releasing large numbers of political prisoners as a sign of ‘Seeking Peace.’ This is a very important and smart gesture. The U.S.A. and Venezuela are working well together, especially as it pertains to rebuilding, in a much bigger, better, and more modern form, their oil and gas infrastructure,” he wrote on Truth Social. “Because of this cooperation, I have cancelled the previously expected second Wave of Attacks, which looks like it will not be needed, however, all ships will stay in place for safety and security purposes. At least 100 Billion Dollars will be invested by BIG OIL, all of whom I will be meeting with today at The White House. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
Trump’s statement comes as Venezuela released prisoners on January 8. The Spanish Foreign Ministry confirmed the release. Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares said in a statement, “The five compatriots released today in Venezuela are already flying towards Spain. Soon, they will be home with their loved ones. I have spoken with them to convey my joy at their release.”
Amid ongoing activity in Venezuela, the president noted in a Wednesday post, “I have just been informed that Venezuela is going to be purchasing ONLY American Made Products, with the money they receive from our new Oil Deal. These purchases will include, among other things, American Agricultural Products, and American Made Medicines, Medical Devices, and Equipment to improve Venezuela’s Electric Grid and Energy Facilities.”
