Trump escalates Maduro confrontation with blockade on Venezuelan oil tankers


We tell the people of the United States our truth, and it is very clear imperialism and the Nazi fascist right-wing wants to colonize Venezuela to take our wealth, oil, gas, gold, iron, aluminum, and other minerals, not blood for oil, not war for oil. I think all of this pressure that President Trump has put on Maduro and on Venezuela is real pressure, they are feeling real pressure, could be used to try and negotiate, to try and negotiate. I think some kind of negotiation that not only provides for their safety and their exit, but also for the continuation of Chavismo, perhaps some sort of co-government during a couple of years, there's a number of proposals that are circulating that I think could be difficult.
