This visualization tracks how a massive $150B mountain of Venezuelan sovereign debt and arbitration awards was „filtered“ by US courts. While total claims exceed $150B, the Delaware court ruled that only ~$19B in specific arbitration awards (like Crystallex and ConocoPhillips) were eligible to target Citgo’s parent company. The final winning bid from Amber Energy was approved at ~$5.9B, leaving the vast majority of claims and the nation’s debt unresolved.
