Venezuela's state-run oil company PDVSA announced progress in negotiations with the U.S. for oil sales, emphasizing that the U.S. must purchase cargoes at international prices. This follows a deal allowing access to $2 billion worth of Venezuelan crude, amid U.S. demands for greater access to the oil industry. PDVSA stated that discussions are based on legal and transparent commercial terms, with Chevron being the only company currently exporting Venezuelan oil under a special U.S. license despite ongoing sanctions.
