Trump is free to invest $100 billion of his own stolen money in Venezuela
.

Chevron will continue to follow "strict fiscal discipline" which is Chevron-speak for only part of the value of the oil tankered out of Venezuela will be invested in projects inside that country.

There must always be a net surplus of capital coming OUT of Venezuela. That's Chevron's signed agreement.

Chevron's "nationalization agreement" signed years ago with Venezuela roughly allows Chevron 50% of the value of the oil to repay Chevron's nationalized assets, with Venezuela receiving the other 50%. But these are net 50% values, taken after deducting Chevrons new investment in oil production.

When Venezuela has been allowed to purchase the capital equipment, the invoices were always inflatedly fraudulent - which Chevron Latin America CEO Ali Mashiri's investigators always uncovered and deducted before paying. Venezuela's Chavistas always made the lame attempt and would protest with oil production shit down until they needed money so badly they would acquiesce to Chevron's adjustments back to real invoices.

Nothing new is going on with Chevron in Venezuela, unless Trump wants to kick in his own capital.
