WASHINGTON - U.S. President Donald Trump is considering imposing sanctions on companies from other countries that do business with Venezuela to cut off revenues to President Nicolas Maduro, Trump’s national security adviser John Bolton told Reuters TV on Friday.
The United States and most other Western countries have thrown their backing behind Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido, who invoked the constitution in January to declare himself interim president, arguing that Maduro’s 2018 re-election was illegitimate.

The opposition is in constant contact with large numbers of admirals and other supporters within the Maduro administration,” Bolton said.
“We’re not afraid to use the phrase ‘Monroe Doctrine’ in this administration,” Bolton said, referring to the 1823 policy established by then-President James Monroe, widely seen in Latin America as a justification for U.S. armed intervention in the region.
Did he just say that the Venezuelan people chose Guaido as their leader? Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhaha
They still see an enemy in communism. Why? Are they affraid democracy is to weak to resist extreme left? They have a point there, when you see the damage, democrats have caused to their own country by left media fake news, and demonisation of their president.
'It's all about the Benjamin's.'
In a multipolar 🌎the unilateral actions of the US government, with it’s limitless power of economic Sanctions impositions, must be contested legally by the countries affected. Economic sanctions are actions of war. The UN must assist in the confrontation of this issue.
The limitless power of the US government, of Economic sanctions impositions, to countries with that have political differences must be contested, by the affected countries. Countless number of women, children,and men die unable to receive medications in cripple economies.
This is going to be more than 6 years of waiting.
The only way the United States may know of cooperation with Maduro and Venezuela is a ship or plane delivery. This has been changed to conceal all sanctions of every kind. United States fighting a losing battle. Do something productive President Trump because this is wasteful! .
