In addition to private capital, the minister plans to discuss with the leadership of the IMF and the World Bank the use of almost $5 billion in blocked assets (special drawing rights) belonging to Venezuela for humanitarian and recovery needs.
Market stabilization and revenue controlThe White House’s strategy is to establish control over sales of Venezuelan crude. In particular, the issued licenses (waivers) stipulate that a significant portion of the oil must be supplied to the American market to reduce domestic fuel prices. Profits from these operations will be accumulated in special accounts of the US Treasury under the supervision of American agencies to prevent their use to finance the remnants of the former regime.
