The government is reopening its crucial oil industry to foreign investment and redirecting oil exports back toward the United States.Presenter Rahul Tandon is joined by producer Gideon Long, who spent five years reporting from Venezuela, to examine the changes introduced since Maduro’s capture and explore what further steps may be required to persuade international companies to return and invest.
