Woman shot dead by US immigration agent

I'm Chris Barrow and at 4.30 GMT on Thursday the 8th of January, these are our main stories. The shooting dead of a woman by a federal immigration officer in the US city of Minneapolis has sparked a huge row between the Trump administration and local officials over who's to blame. Donald Trump says Venezuela has agreed to buy only American goods with the money it will receive from a new oil deal. Our international editor gives us his assessment of the changing world order.

The chance of hundreds of people who've been attending a vigil for Renee Good, a 37-year-old woman shot dead in a car by a federal agent from ICE, that's Immigrations and Customs Enforcement. The incident has sparked a row over who was to blame. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem claimed the woman had blocked the road with her car, then tried to run over officers.

David Willis. Donald Trump has announced that any money Caracas receives from oil sales will only be used to buy products made in America and that he'll decide how the profits will be divided between the US and Venezuela. He also claims that the US taking control of Venezuela's oil reserves will bring prices down. So how will this affect the market price of oil? Nick Marsh is our business correspondent.

Donald Trump says it will come down because of an increased supply, you know, just working on a basic supply and demand premise. But the numbers don't really back that up. Venezuela contributes less than 1% to the world's global oil supply. The supply in general is pretty high now. The US uses around 20 million barrels of oil a day, so we need to be talking about an enormous amount of oil to move the dial here, and that's just not the case.

There is also, of course, a political dimension to it all. We know Donald Trump is vulnerable on the economy, on the cost of living. The midterm elections are at the end of the year. And he will be wanting to show that he's doing everything possible to lower that cost of living, not least by bringing down the price of oil. China used to buy most of Venezuela's oil. So will they continue to do that, or is it going to be tainted by the Donald Trump connection?
