The Zhitong Finance App learned that Goldman Sachs said that after the US arrests the Venezuelan leader, the room for long-term growth in the country's oil production may eventually put pressure on global crude oil prices. Last weekend, the United States shocked the world by attacking the South American nation of Venezuela, arresting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, and claiming to “take over” the country. Venezuela used to be a major oil producer, but production has declined sharply over the past 20 years. Goldman Sachs analyst Daan Struyven and others pointed out in a Sunday report that any recovery “is likely to be gradual and incomplete, as infrastructure is aging and strong incentives are needed to attract significant upstream investment.”
