The US authorities are “working hard” to ensure that Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro is not in power in the Bolivarian Republic by the end of the year. This was stated by the US Special Representative for Venezuela Elliott Abrams, speaking at the Foreign Affairs Committee of the US Senate.
“Without a doubt, we hope that he does not survive this year, we are working hard to make it that way. What needs to happen for this? Venezuelans must protest these elections and the international community must reject these elections as a complete fraud. We need more sanctions, personal sanctions. In the case of relations, especially between Iran and Venezuela, we need to continue to try to hinder their development, ”said a State Department official
