5. November 21, 2018 - Rusoro's Venezuelan Asset Bid Nixed Following $1.2B Deal (*** THIS IS THE NEWS IN QUESTION RIGHT NOW ***)
https://www.law360.com/energy/articles/1104284/rusoro-s-venezuelan-asset-bid-nixed-following-1-2b-deal
My interpretation is that the news on November 21, 2018 was to correspond back to RML's actions on May 8, 2018 and August 15, 2018 only.
Incidentally, by referencing a similar case @ https://oilprice.com/Latest-Energy-News/World-News/Venezuela-To-Make-949M-Bond-Payment-To-Keep-US-Citgo-Assets.html
You should be preparing your mind to see the payment on November 30, 2018 the latest.
