"US Reimposes Sanctions on Venezuela's Oil Sector Amid Election Concerns"
TL;DR Summary
Venezuela's loss of a key U.S. license allowing oil exports is expected to impact the volume and quality of its crude and fuel sales, prompting a rush for individual U.S. deal authorizations. The move marks a setback from President Joe Biden's policy of re-engagement with Maduro but stops short of a return to the "maximum pressure" campaign under former President Donald Trump. The withdrawal of the license could force Venezuela's state company PDVSA to resort to selling oil through intermediaries, eroding its finances further and limiting access to hard currency.
