Important: Senate Democrats denounce that a legal loophole will block Betancourt’s oil deal agreement. In a letter sent on September 30 to secretaries Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, and Chris Wright, the Democrats Jeanne Shaheen, Jack Reed, Martin Heinrich, and Elizabeth Warren—leading Democrats on the Foreign Relations, Armed Forces, Energy, and Banking committees—point to one of the main obstacles the project faces: the lack of a clear legal authority to carry out some of its core provisions. They warn of actions that are not only legislative but also legal. The problem affects the Pentagon in particular.

The senators also demand to know the prior investigation conducted regarding Betancourt and to determine whether Trump, members of his family, donors, or current or former officials of his Administration could obtain any economic benefit. The Senate’s offensive thus confirms that the project is not facing only economic and political doubts: its legal architecture remains one of the main obstacles to getting it off the ground.
