💨 Abstract
The U.S. Senate advanced a resolution to block President Trump from further military action against Venezuela without congressional approval. Trump, meanwhile, suggested U.S. oversight of Venezuela could last years and invited Colombia's leader for a visit, easing tensions. Venezuela's government announced the release of political prisoners. The Senate measure faces challenges in becoming law, requiring House passage and a potential veto override. Trump also plans to meet with major oil companies to discuss boosting Venezuela's oil production.
