This is a coup through back door. The Venezuelan President was duly elected by its people. America does not care about Venezuelans, they are only after installing a President they can control so they can access their crude oil. Venezuela has the highest proven crude oil reserve on the planet, more than even Saudi Arabia. All they want is to install a puppet régime. If you know you know. 7 Likes |

The lifeless one would be panicking by nowquote author=heendrix post=75220851]The Trump administration on Monday escalated its efforts to force Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro from power, blocking all U.S. revenue to Venezuela’s national oil company and calling on members of its armed forces to switch their allegiance to the man the United States now recognizes as Venezuela’s head of state. Any attempt to harm remaining U.S. diplomats in Venezuela, or violence against the newly recognized president, Juan Guaidó , “will be met with a significant response,” White House national security adviser John Bolton said. President Trump “has made it very clear all options are on the table,” said Bolton, who announced the sanctions at a white House press briefing alongside Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin For the moment, the administration is depending on economic and diplomatic measures to squeeze Maduro, who has refused to leave and charged the United States with trying to overthrow his government. Pentagon officials have indicated they have no orders to prepare for military action toward Venezuela. But by starving Maduro of a critical source of cash, the Trump administration has dramatically increased the pressure on his government. Bolton said that Venezuelan “official and military personnel” were already “heeding this call” to change sides, noting that the military attache at the country’s embassy in Washington has publicly recognized Guaidó’s government, as has the Venezuelan Consulate in Miami. He also said that several unnamed generals who last week publicly pledged loyalty to Maduro were already in contact with the opposition. The measures announced Monday place sanctions on PDVSA, the Venezuelan state oil company, freezing $7 billion in U.S.- based assets and blocking more than $11 billion in revenue that would otherwise flow from oil sales over the next year, Bolton said. At least 20 other countries, most of them in the Western Hemisphere, have joined the United States, which recognized Guaidó, 35, as the legitimate president of Venezuela on Wednesday. At a U.N. Security Council meeting Saturday, several leading European governments threatened to recognize Guaidó, the elected president of the opposition-controlled National Assembly, unless a plan for new elections was announced by the end of this week. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/trump-administration-announces-sanctions-targeting-venezuelas-oil-industry[/quote] |

The way the US is going, this might just lead to WWW III because Russia and China won't just sit idle and allow the US destroy all their investments in Venezuela. And those saying Russia can't stop US, they stopped the US from toppling Syrian President, so they can stop the US again. 2 Likes |

Any day the US announces sanction against Nigeria's oil, the 12 Sharia States of Northern Nigeria that adopted Islamic Sharia Criminal Justice system since 1999 shall declare Islamic Republic of Northern Nigeria (Arewa Sharia Republic). Buhari clan doesn''t seem to understand that the UK and the US are what hold Nigeria's Sovereignty today, not the people of Nigeria, not the Armed Forces of Nigeria that can't even defeat Boko Haram. 1 Like |

He is a boy to Saudi Arabia which who will just tell him to keep mute. Have you seen Trump issue warning on Jamal Kashiogi's murder or war in Yemen? He will never do.

The western countries are not suppose to interfere in the internal affairs of any country, since they won't like the same to be meted on them. But, they keep working towards destroying economies of nations who don't do their bidding by placing sanctions o them, financing terrorism n militias against such countries . Honestly, my take on that of Venezuela is simply to have control over their vast oil reserve being the country with the largest oil reserve on earth. I pray that many of us will understand that these people don't care about us but their interests. 5 Likes |

The wealth America and uk are enjoying today is a result of the Black Man go and read history... Our bad style of leadership make us look like baby in their sight... They call us all sort of names but still do business with us. They Grant us loans and impose laws and make us open our boarders in return. A white man can come here and open company here without stress but you can't do the same there... The more you look the less you see Wisen Up. 2 Likes |
