China’s ambassador to Chile has derided U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, saying he “lost his mind” when he blamed China for the meltdown in Venezuela
.
Tensions are ratcheting up between the nations as the Pentagon explores possible military options to deter Chinese, Russian and Cuban influence in Venezuela, CNN reported Monday. Pompeo last week scorched Beijing for continuing to back Maduro. “China’s bankrolling of the Maduro regime helped precipitate and prolong the crisis in that country,” said Pompeo, who called Maduro a “power-hungry tyrant.”
A spokesman for China’s Foreign Ministry criticized Pompeo’s “groundless allegations” and “attempts to ... sow discord between China and Latin American countries.”
