Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro on Sunday requested assistance from the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC+) in combating what he called the US "direct aggression," which jeopardises Caracas' oil output and the stability of global markets.
Maduro's call for help came in a letter to OPEC Secretary General Haitham Al Ghais and member nations, which Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yvan Gil published on Telegram.
