Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been given the last word on the use of the revenue from Venezuela's oil sales as the Trump administration oversees the country's industry following the capture of authoritarian President Nicolas Maduro, according to a new report.
Spanish outlet ABC News detailed that an executive decree makes the U.S. the sole custodian of all funds resulting from Venezuelan resources. The document, dated January 9, prevents the money from being transferred, seized or subjected to legal proceedings and can only be used if given authorization by Rubio, the outlet added.
