๐ป๐ช Venezuela, one of OPECโs five founding members, is considering leaving the organization
An exit would let Caracas raise oil production without OPEC quotas and give Washington a larger role in Venezuelaโs oil sector, including a possible 100-year lease of several fields.
The idea was discussed in recent talks with the United States, but no decision has been made.
Trump has long criticized OPECโs effect on U.S. fuel prices. Experts warn that further departures, after the UAEโs exit in May and Iraqโs hints in June, could weaken OPECโs unity and even trigger a price war.

News clip : When asked by a reporter whether talks would cover the Cheongung-II system that Kuwait has recently been seeking to acquire, Foreign Minister Cho smiled and replied, โYes.โKuwaiti Foreign Minister Jarrah, who held bilateral talks with Minister Cho that day, is the son of Sheikh Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, the 13th emir who ruled Kuwait for 28 years, and the paternal nephew of the current emir. The fact that a member of the royal family came to South Korea in person to pursue cooperation in defense industry and diplomacy has also raised positive expectations.
