Us President Donald Trump’s Plan Would Send Venezuela Back to Oil Market’s Dark Side
The proposed revocation of Chevron Corp.'s operating license in Venezuela would likely plunge the country's oil sector into darkness, allowing corruption to flourish and eroding any progress made since Chevron's involvement brought transparency.

Chevron's withdrawal would not only increase corruption but also exacerbate Venezuela's fuel crisis.
