Venezuela accuses US of ‘economic terrorism’
Venezuela’s government yesterday accused the United States of trying to derail political crisis resolution talks with the opposition after President Donald Trump ordered a freeze on its US-based assets. The regime of President Nicolas Maduro, in a foreign ministry statement, denounced the US move as “another serious aggression by the Trump administration through arbitrary economic terrorism against the Venezuelan people.” US national security adviser John Bolton yesterday called for tougher international action against Maduro. “The time for dialogue is over. Now is the time for action,” Bolton said. “Maduro is at the end of his rope,” Bolton said, warning Russia not to provide him with further support.
