Venezuela's interim President Delcy Rodriguez is set to visit India next week to discuss oil supply and energy ties, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced.
Rodriguez's trip comes as India struggles with a growing economy hit by the US and Israeli attack on Iran, with the US eager to sell energy to the country.
Venezuela has the world's largest proven oil reserves, and Rodriguez has won praise from President Donald Trump for cooperating with the United States.
India imports nearly half of its energy needs and most of its oil, making it an attractive market for energy suppliers.
