Exxon Mobil CEO Darren Woods, seated to the right, listens as U.S. President Donald Trump, left, speaks during a meeting with oil company executives in the East Room of the White House in Washington, DC on Jan. 9, 2026. President Trump is aiming to convince oil executives to support his plans in Venezuela, a country whose energy resources he says he expects to control for years to come.
