HOUSTON, TEXAS (By Editors at Energy Analytics Institute, 12.Feb.2026, Words: 212) — US president Donald Trump commented on relations with Venezuela after US secretary of energy Chris Wright’s visit to the OPEC country.
“Relations between Venezuela and the United States have been, to put it mildly, extraordinary! We are dealing very well with President Delcy Rodriguez, and her Representatives. Oil is starting to flow, and large amounts of money, unseen for many years, will soon be greatly helping the people of Venezuela,” Trump wrote on 12 Feb. 2026 in a post on social media.

“Marco Rubio, and all of our Representatives, are doing a fantastic job, but we speak only for ourselves, and don’t want there to be any confusion or misrepresentation. There is a story about a man named Harry Sargeant III in The Wall Street Journal. He has no authority, in any way, shape, or form, to act on behalf of the United States of America, nor does anyone else that is not approved by the State Department. Without this approval, no one is authorized to represent our country.”
