[Confidential Report Reveals: US Has Received $12 Billion from Venezuelan Oil] According to a report by Jinse Finance on November 10th, citing the New York Times, a confidential report by global financial services firm KPMG reveals that the US government received and spent over $12 billion from Venezuelan natural resource exports in the first nine months of this year. This report was written a few days before the US midterm elections. The report shows that from January 3rd, the day of the US military intervention, to the end of September, the "Venezuela Escrow Account" established by the US Treasury Department received a total of $12.26 billion in deposits. The vast majority of these funds were redistributed to Venezuela shortly after arrival. As of September 30th, the report's cutoff date, the account balance was approximately $170 million. During the same period, the account also earned approximately $12 million in interest income. The majority of the funds repatriated from the escrow account to Venezuela were injected into the market through foreign exchange auctions held by Venezuelan commercial banks. The report did not disclose the ultimate beneficiaries of the Venezuelan foreign exchange auction funds.
