"US Ends Sanctions Waiver, Reimposes Oil Sanctions on Venezuela"

The Biden administration is ending the temporary sanctions waiver on Venezuelan oil and gas sectors after Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro failed to uphold his end of the bargain to hold free and fair elections. This move marks a departure from the previous administration's approach and comes after months of harassment and arrests of opposition figures by Maduro's government. Despite the challenges, the opposition remains determined to work together and present a candidate to run against Maduro, while the U.S. plans to continue engaging in private to push for a better course in Venezuelan elections.
