STORY: U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday (January 11) relations with Venezuela’s leadership was “working out well”.

“At some point I’ll meet (with Venezuela’s interim President Delcy Rodriguez), she's been very good,” Trump told reporters on Air Force One on his way back to Washington on Sunday.

Trump added that he might block Exxon Mobil from investing in Venezuela after the oil major's CEO called the country "uninvestable" during a White House meeting last week.

Exxon CEO Darren Woods told Trump that Venezuela would need to change its laws before it could be an attractive investment opportunity, during the high-profile meeting on Friday with at least 17 other oil executives.

“I didn't like Exxon's response,” Trump told the gaggle onboard Air Force One. “Yeah, they're playing too cute,” he added.
