WASHINGTON/MOSCOW - The United States and Russia traded warnings against interfering in Venezuela on Wednesday, a day after U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo accused Moscow of stopping President Nicolas Maduro from leaving the country.
“The Russian side underlined that interference by Washington in the internal affairs of a sovereign state and threats towards its leadership was a flagrant breach of international law,” the ministry said. Russia rejected that allegation on Wednesday, with foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova calling it “fake news.”
“Military action is possible. If that’s what’s required, that’s what the United States will do,” Pompeo told Fox Business Network.Marchers gathered on Wednesday for planned mass street protests against Maduro.
