Donald Trump has published a message on Truth Social that could pass for one more in his infinite activity on his social network. This Friday, at around 1:45 p.m. Washington DC time, the president of the United States wrote a publication citing the “world’s leading oil companies” for an immediate meeting at the White House.
Until then, nothing exceptional around . The event will take place “almost exclusively” on Venezuela and the new political, economic and commercial situation after the capture of Nicolás Maduro and the premiere of the supervised Government of Delcy Rodríguez. Of course, with oil as a key element.
“Today’s meeting will focus almost exclusively on Venezuelan oil and our long-term relationship with Venezuela, its security and its people,” writes Donald Trump.
He then insists, in case there weren’t already enough clues, that “a very important factor in this participation will be the lowering oil prices for the American people“, in addition to “perhaps the most important […] stop the entry of drugs and criminals into the United States.”
As we say, nothing strange up to this point, but a few lines before reaching this comment, Donald Trump does something practically unheard of for Donald Trump: apologize. Yes, apologize in your dealings with international oil companies.
From this Friday’s meeting at the White House, Trump points out that “everyone wants to be there”, but regrets that it is not possible. And he attributes it to the presidential building.
“It’s a shame the ballroom isn’t finished, because if it was, it would be packed,” he notes. And he adds in a tone inappropriate for him that “We apologize to the oil companies that we cannot receive today“.
He immediately promises that both the Secretary of Energy, Chris Wright, and the Secretary of the Interior, Doug Burgum, will receive companies that cannot be present today due to lack of space “during the next week.” “We are all in daily contact,” he concludes.
