President Donald Trump made it clear that he was only interested in the country&#039;s substantial oil reserves. On Thursday, the government in Caracas announced a massive overhaul of the petroleum sector. The interim president has signed a law easing state control and opening the door for private firms to invest in the country. For many, it paves the way for American oil giants to return to Venezuela with massive investments. But who will stand to gain from the changes: Venezuela or the United States? Or both?

But is this a real break with past policy - or the latest iteration of the US&#039;s longstanding interventionist power play in Latin America?

And with Cuba back in the administration’s sights, will Trump push for further action in the region?

This week on UpFront, Marc Lamont Hill speaks with Senior Analyst at the National Security Archive, Peter Kornbluh.</video:description><video:player_loc>https://players.brightcove.net/665003303001/6tKQRAx7lu_default/index.html?videoId=6388593589112</video:player_loc><video:duration>1500</video:duration><video:publication_date>2026-01-31T15:50:06.035Z</video:publication_date><video:tag>Donald Trump</video:tag><video:tag>Nicolas Maduro</video:tag><video:tag>Politics</video:tag></video:video></url><url><loc>https://www.aljazeera.com/video/newsfeed/2026/1/31/us-journalists-arrested-for-covering-anti-ice-protest-at-church</loc><lastmod>2026-01-31T13:49:38Z</lastmod><video:video><video:thumbnail_loc>https://www.aljazeera.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/image-1769867358.jpg?fit=1920%2C1080</video:thumbnail_loc><video:title>US journalists arrested for covering anti-ICE protest at church</video:title><video:description>Two journalists were arrested and taken to court in the US for covering an anti-ICE protest inside a Minnesota church, as protests were held across the country against two killings by federal agents and President Trump’s immigration raids.
