The US has a new plan for Venezuela. It will help Venezuela's oil. The US also wants to free American citizens. This is changing things in the area.
US soldiers took President Maduro and his wife. This happened on January 3rd. They will go to court in New York. The US wants to put more pressure on Venezuela's leaders. Venezuela said it will free some Americans. President Trump said this was to help with the arrest.
The US and Colombia also had a talk. President Trump spoke with Colombia's president. This helped calm things down. US foreign policy can be surprising.
The US wants oil leaders to put money into Venezuela's oil. They want to invest $100 billion. This could help get more oil. But Venezuela's oil system is old. It has had problems.
Using more oil from Venezuela could be bad for the climate. It might use much of the world's budget for warming. Venezuela might make more oil later. This makes people ask about climate goals.
The US plan needs Venezuela to help. But Venezuela has many problems. People will watch Venezuela closely.
