I'd probably be inclined to keep Exxon out.
The promise
Trump said he might exclude ExxonMobil from the effort to rebuild Venezuela's oil industry after its chief executive questioned investment conditions. Darren Woods had described the country as uninvestable without substantial changes to its legal and commercial framework. Trump expressed dissatisfaction with that response while speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One. The argument for exclusion was that companies unwilling to support the administration's initiative should not receive a privileged role in it. The objection was that an investment decision should depend on commercial security rather than whether a company pleased the president. His wording expressed an inclination and did not establish that Exxon had already been barred.
