President Donald Trump says the United States and Venezuela are now cooperating on rebuilding the South American nation's oil industry.
In a statement, Trump said a previously expected second wave of attacks on Venezuela has been canceled. He did not specify what those attacks would have been.
However, U.S. naval ships will remain positioned near Venezuela. The president stated they will stay for security purposes.
The announcement marks a shift in tone. The U.S. has led a pressure campaign against the government of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, calling him illegitimate.
