Biden removes Trump's sanctions against Cuba and Venezuela.
By resuming dialogue with the Castro and Maduro dictatorships, the US changes its strategy toward Latin America. In the case of Venezuela, the US benefits the American oil company Chevron, which will be able to explore on Venezuelan soil with the regime's state-owned company, PDVSA. Carlos Erik Malpica Flores, a former PDVSA official and the nephew of Venezuela's first lady, has also been removed from the sanctioned list.
