In March, Donald Trump's administration announced the cancellation of the license, which allowed the American oil company Chevron to continue its operations in Venezuela, including the export of its oil. This decision was the result of Washington's accusations against Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, who, according to the United States, has not made significant progress in electoral reforms and solving problems with the return of migrants.
