- The United States has now returned to the Venezuelan government all $500 million from the initial sale of oil that was part of a deal reached between Caracas and Washington last month, a U.S. official said on Tuesday.

The last $200 million from that first sale has been sent to Venezuela, the official told Reuters. The deal came about after Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was captured in a U.S. military operation on January 3.
