Economy of Venezuela

The Central Bank of Venezuela says the country is down to just $10.5 billion in foreign reserves. At the same time, Caracas has to meet debt obligations of $7.2 billion this year.

A new study conducted by More Consulting adds to evidence that Venezuela doesn’t have enough food to go around, leaving at least 15% of the people to eat out of the trash.
The study reveals that 52% have to resort to re-sellers, while more than 36% have to exchange food with relatives and friends. More than 45% get food at private supermarkets.
