Trump's remarks came days after he said the US would "run" Venezuela after the ousting of Maduro - who has now been brought to the US to face criminal charges. Speaking to NBC about his 18-month timeframe, Trump speculated that oil production could ramp up "in less time than that, but it'll be a lot of money". He has been explicit about his ambitions for American petroleum companies to scale up their operations in the country. "Having a Venezuela that's an oil producer is good for the United States because it keeps the price of oil down," Trump added. The analysts who previously spoke to the BBC were sceptical that Trump's plans would have a major impact on the global supply - and therefore price - of oil. They suggested that firms would look for reassurance that a stable government was in place, and even when they did invest, their projects would not deliver for years.

Harvey Weinstein mistrial declared in New York rape case Background of the case A New York court has declared a mistrial in the rape case involving Harvey Weinstein after jurors said they could not reach a unanimous decision. The trial focused on claims that Weinstein raped aspiring actress Jessica Mann in a hotel room more than a decade ago. This marks the third time a New York jury has reviewed this charge. Weinstein was once convicted in this case, but an appeals court later overturned that verdict. A previous retrial last year also ended without a verdict. Weinstein remains in jail due to separate convictions in other sexual assault cases. Jury deadlock leads to mistrial The recent trial lasted about one month. Jurors told the judge they were unable to agree on a final decision, which forced the court to end the proceedings without a verdict. The judge formally declared a mistrial after confirming the deadlock. Prosecution response and next steps Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said prosecutors are reviewing whether to bring the case again. He expressed disappointment with the outcome but said the legal process must be respected. Prosecutors thanked the jury for their service and acknowledged Jessica Mann for coming forward with her allegations. They also said any future decision will consider both the survivor and the ongoing legal matters involving Weinstein. The district attorney office confirmed it will continue pursuing sexual violence cases and focus on supporting survivors through the justice process. Broader context
