Mnuchin Announces New Sanctions on Venezuela

‘The Maduro regime has consistently shown hostility to the rule of law, democratic institutions, and the Venezuelan people’

EXCERPT:

MNUCHIN: "This year alone, we have sanctioned 30 Venezuelan officials including Maduro himself. We urge those within the regime, including those who have been sanctioned, to distance themselves from the violence and the dictatorship. President Trump made it clear the status quo is unacceptable. Today’s actions is a next step towards freedom for the Venezuelan people. We will continue working to achieve this goal with allies around the world who have widely condemned Venezuela’s dictatorship."
