Venezuela hit with new U.S. sanctions



BOGOTA: The United States has called on its allies to freeze the assets of Venezuela’s state-owned oil company PDVSA.

The US on Monday targeted Venezuela’s government with new sanctions after violence blocked humanitarian aid from reaching the country.

The U.S. Treasury Department’s sanctions have been imposed on four Venezuelan state governors.

Colombia’s foreign minister has warned about “credible threats to the life” of Venezuela’s opposition leader Juan Guaido. Meanwhile, the Trump administration has mounted pressure to the United Nations Security Council asking it to discuss Venezuela’s situation.
