Trump: Canceled Second Attack on Caracas - $100 Billion to be Invested

US President Donald Trump announced today that he canceled a second wave of attacks on Venezuela, following the release of a "large number of political prisoners" from Caracas. In a post on Truth Social, Trump described the release as a "very significant and logical gesture". The American president stated that the US and Venezuela are working well together, adding that at least $100 billion will be invested by "large oil companies" in Venezuela. These companies will meet at the White House today. Despite the cancellation of the attack, Trump emphasized that all tankers in Venezuela "will remain in place for safety and security reasons".
