Russia and China strongly criticized U.S. sanctions placed on Venezuela, with the former pledging to support the beleaguered President Nicolas Maduro.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Tuesday the sanctions completely undermined confidence in a international financial system that is dominated by the U.S., Russian news agency Interfax reported.

"Russia is doing everything to support the lawful government of Maduro," Lavrov added, calling U.S. sanctions against Venezuelan state energy firm PDVSA "cycnical." Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov added that the restrictions continue an "undisguised interference in its (Venezuela's) internal affairs," calling them "illegal."


The U.S. administration announced sanctions against the state's dominant energy firm PDVSA on Monday in a bid to damage the socialist dictator, President Nicolas Maduro, who is clinging to power amid a leadership battle.

Last week, the opposition leader of Venezuela's National Assembly, Juan Guaido, named himself interim president after street protests against Maduro. The U.S. recognized that claim and has been encouraging support for regime change in Venezuela, a country hit by the economic policies of Maduro.

'They should bear responsibility'

Earlier on Tuesday, China also voiced its opposition to sanctions, saying the U.S. should bear responsibility for their consequences. Foreign Ministry spokesman Geng Shuang said historical experience showed foreign interference "only makes situations more complicated," Reuters reported.

"The relevant country's sanctions on Venezuela will lead to the deterioration of conditions of people's lives," Geng told a regular news briefing in Beijing, referring to the United States.

US is just creating more problems in the world. Syria, Ukraine, they are gonna make us all die in WWIII. China and Russia had been very patient, only US is the real troublemaker, almost all wars were conducted by them. I fear for mankind, US is pushing China to militarize even faster, they keep on instigating China, we might see a nuclear war coming, and humanity will go exstinct.

Americans want hegemony. They want everyone else to obey their orders. That boat has sailed. Should have conquered the world in 1945 when they had nukes and no one else did.

In midst of accusing other country meddling in American's politics, US keep meddling in other country's politics.

A poweful message !

They can try, but remember this time China and Russia is involved too. They threatened to invade NK too remember?

So the final stage has been set; soon Venezuela will face a coup and Maduro will be deposed.

Their military attache in US will be elected as the new President and you'd see Chevron and Exxon Mobil taking over all oil fields one by one.

The good side - Venezuelan economy will stabilize and at least people will get to eat three square meals a day.

The bad side - Venezuela becomes the 52nd state of USA in American continents.

Good job to China and Russia!

If this happens, hopefully it shouldn't happen but then sooner or latter world will see full fledged cold war with new blocs of power to counter western hegemony.

Chinese is the one of the oldest civilization, popular saying by our elders on China; "Chinese cannot be fooled", "Chinese people will never get influenced by West blatant lies, policies and propaganda".

China is a emerging power fulfilling all parameters of great sustained Economy, developing strong military Defensive capability on all fronts and with these loses will be finally forced into offensive arena to protect business,allies ultimately touching the heights of power.

Russia is learning from past mistakes and emerging stronger day by day to previous glory.

Combination of these two great powers with other small Countries will be a deadly combination to handle then.

China and Russia both has stakes in Venezuela. So, to be seen the future chain of reactions after culminations of the present events.
