Washington is not hiding its desire to see Venezuela’s socialist President, Nicolas Maduro, removed from power. Trump administration even spoke of the possibility of the so-called “humanitarian intervention” into the country.

Last year, the US imposed more sanctions prohibiting trading new debt and equity issued by the Venezuelan government and state oil company, PdVSA.

The US Department of Treasury also introduced several rounds of restrictions against Venezuelan top government officials. Maduro was among those blacklisted and called it “an honor.”
