'Turkey will continue to support Venezuela, as problems there could affect all of Latin America and even the Caribbean.' Turkish Foreign Minister Cavusoglu
Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu shakes hands with his Venezuelan counterpart Jorge Arreaza after a press conference in Ankara, Turkey. April 1, 2019. “Turkey will continue to support Venezuela, as problems there could affect all of Latin America and even the Caribbean,” Mevlut Cavusoglu told a joint news conference alongside his Venezuelan counterpart Jorge Arreaza in Ankara, Turkey's capital.
Cavusoglu also announced that he will meet US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and National Security Advisor John Bolton during his visit to Washington on Thursday. Venezuela has been rocked by protests since January 10, when Nicolas Maduro was sworn in for a second term following a vote boycotted by the opposition.
Tensions flared when opposition leader Juan Guaido declared himself acting president on January 23 – a move supported by the US and many European and Latin American countries.Source: TRTWorld and agencies
