Venezuelan demonstrators demanded Maduro’s release – Mehr News Agency | RCO News Agency

According to RCO News Agency, quoted by Morning Star, the people of Venezuela asked the United States to respect the territorial sovereignty of Caracas in response to the call of the ruling Socialist Party.

Venezuelan demonstrators demanded the release of the kidnapped President Nicolás Maduro and his wife from US captivity.

The US Department of Treasury, in an action contrary to international standards, announced that it will only allow Venezuela to export oil if it is done under the supervision of Washington.

Meanwhile, the US Treasury announced in a statement: We will issue permission to extract, export and buy and sell Venezuelan oil if this operation is carried out by a legal entity registered in the US.

It is stated in this statement: Venezuelan oil operations will not include transactions with Russian parties.

Earlier, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that if diplomacy fails, Washington is ready to use force to get Venezuela’s cooperation.

In a recent meeting with the US Congress, Rubio announced that he would use “military power” if the Venezuelan interim government does not fully cooperate.

This American official announced the opening of Venezuela’s energy sector to American companies and their access to oil production, along with the use of oil revenues to buy American goods, among Washington’s demands from Caracas.

The kidnapped president of Venezuela declared the country’s oil thieves as the final target of the United States.

Venezuela’s Interim President Delsey Rodríguez also emphasizes resistance against Washington’s excesses.
