United States Department of Treasury announced on its official site on Thursday the authorization of some transactions to Venezuela that would otherwise have been prohibited under the sanctions program.
The decision was made after "the announcement of a political agreement between representatives of Maduro and the Unitary Platform, as part of the longstanding policy to support the peaceful restoration of democracy." The transactions are mostly related to Venezuela's oil, gas, and gold mining sectors.
At the same time, all other sanctions imposed by the US against Venezuela, remain in force.
