The United States attacked Venezuela and President Donald Trump is threatening to take Greenland “the hard way.” All the while, the US has an uncertain economic outlook and a weak jobs report.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he might block Exxon Mobil from investing in Venezuela after the oil major's CEO called the country "uninvestable" during a White House meeting last week.

President Donald Trump has touted Venezuela's oil, inviting executives to the White House on Friday to discuss drilling. "We want stability," he said last week, "but we do want democracy."

A lot of questions remain to be answered following the unprecedented US attack in Venezuela and everything that has happened since. For Venezuelans, both inside the country and abroad, it’s been a mix of emotions and a sense of uncertainty over what comes next.

The U.S. State Department had earlier warned U.S. citizens in Venezuela to leave immediately, saying in part that there were "of groups of armed militias, known as colectivos, setting up roadblocks and searching vehicles for evidence of U.S. citizenship or support for the United States."

Residents living in the capital, Caracas, and elsewhere have expressed concerns about safety and the country’s future as its leadership and the level of U.S. involvement remains in flux.

After arresting Venezuela's president, Trump and top U.S. officials warned other countries could be the targets of American intervention next.

Experts warn that the U.S. push to revamp and boost Venezuela’s vast oil reserves could worsen decades of ecological damage and increase planet-warming pollution in a country already struggling with the legacy of a long-declining petroleum industry.

Petty’s Island, which has been owned by Citgo for 110 years, could soon pass under control of Paul Singer’s hedge fund.

Trump holds a meeting of oil CEOs at the White House to project support for his Venezuela plans. But the companies are skeptical.

President Donald Trump may have significantly disrupted the global oil industry by removing Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro from the country and bringing him to the U.S. to face criminal charges.
