María Corina Machado postpones her Washington meeting amid the oil deal

Opposition commentator David Placeres reported that María Corina Machado postponed her Washington meeting until next week, after her team turned down an offer to meet with Vice President JD Vance. According to Placeres, Machado wants to meet directly with Donald Trump or Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

Placeres said that, according to Trump, the United States “takes control of 65 billion barrels of oil across 17 oil fields” following the deals the White House called the biggest oil deal in history. The commentator said it remains to be seen whether that helps Machado's return to the country.

«Does María Corina Machado want to meet with Donald Trump, or failing that, with Marco Rubio, who are the ones holding the reins on Venezuela?»— David Placeres, September 12, 2026 · watch
