Ecopetrol and Petrobras should collaborate on green hydrogen, Petro says

The two countries also signed cooperation deals on fighting crime, hunger and human trafficking and said they would improve fiber optic provision in their shared Amazon area. The leaders agreed that whoever loses Venezuela's July presidential election should have their safety guaranteed, Petro added after the meeting in Bogota.

Colombian state energy company Ecopetrol and its Brazilian counterpart Petrobras should work together on developing green hydrogen, Colombian President Gustavo Petro said on Wednesday after meeting Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. The two countries also signed cooperation deals on fighting crime, hunger and human trafficking and said they would improve fiber optic provision in their shared Amazon area.

The leaders agreed that whoever loses Venezuela's July presidential election should have their safety guaranteed, Petro added after the meeting in Bogota. The Biden administration will

reimpose oil sanctions on Venezuela on Thursday in response to what U.S. officials see as President Nicolas Maduro's failure to meet his commitments for free and fair elections this year.
