Trump says US is taking partial control of Venezuela's vast oil reserves

President Donald Trump on Friday announced an unprecedented U.S. push to take control of a fifth of Venezuela's vast oil reserves, betting that American companies can revive ​the OPEC nation's battered energy industry while delivering a new source of crude to help bring down U.S. fuel prices.
Trump provided few details about the agreement, saying only ‌that the U.S. had secured majority control of more than 65 billion barrels of Venezuela's proven oil reserves through a partnership with private business.
