Venezuela’s interim president issues a sharp rebuke of Washington’s escalating pressure on her country.

Unchecked and unilateral US  military actions signal a return to “predatory colonialism” that threatens the foundations of international law and risks plunging global affairs back into a “law of the jungle,” says a UN rapporteur.

China has taken a series of measures targeting the US economy in response to the abduction of Maduro, a report says.

Washington is now turning its attention to Cuba, as the next target after the forcible removal of Venezuela’s leader, a report says.

Venezuela’s interim president has stated that Caracas has a right to have relations with China, Cuba, Iran, and Russia.

The United Arab Emirates’ state oil company is considering a significant investment in Venezuela’s natural gas industry, according to industry reports.

The US invasion of Venezuela on January 3 and the subsequent abduction of President Maduro marked a significant shift in American foreign policy, reflecting a return to the interventionist tactics of the past.
