On May 1st, ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods stated -in an interview with CNBC- that he is evaluating possible investments in Venezuela, following the changes -in recent months- to energy regulations and contractual terms driven by the interim Government of Delcy Rodr\u00edguez and with the approval of the Trump Administration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
