U.S. President Donald Trump stated the United States could oversee Venezuela and its significant oil reserves for an extended period, possibly much longer than a year, following the removal of its leader, Nicolas Maduro. This assertion comes as the U.S. plans to sell Venezuelan crude to fund purchases of U.S.-made products, aiming to control oil prices and exert influence without direct military presence.

• Trump suggested the U.S. could run Venezuela and its oil for "much longer" than a year, indicating a prolonged oversight.
• The U.S. plans to sell between 30 million and 50 million barrels of Venezuelan crude, with the proceeds going towards U.S. products, aiming to drive oil prices down to $50 a barrel.
• Venezuela's interim leader Delcy Rodriguez confirmed negotiations with the U.S. to sell crude, despite condemning the U.S. actions.
• The U.S. Senate is voting on a "war powers" resolution for congressional authorization before military force against Venezuela.
• At least 100 people were killed in the U.S. operation, including 32 Cuban soldiers, according to Caracas and Havana.
