According to Pompeo, he will be an important acquisition for the US mission - to help the Venezuelan people "fully restore democracy and prosperity in their country."
Byshok noted that the United States has its own interest in continuing, above all, economic relations with Venezuela. At the same time, he added that the Latin American population in the States plays a big role.
“The goal of at least the USA is to have Venezuela continue to supply oil to the USA. On the other hand, it can be said that the United States has a fairly growing Latin American diaspora, and quite a serious, above all, Cuban lobby ... in the context of the political struggle for the votes of the growing Latin American population for the United States to take a more active position on these frontiers. If it were not for this factor, the USA would be much less interested in supporting the Venezuelan opposition, ”Byshok noted.
Earlier, Pompeo announced the appointment of a US representative for Venezuela.
