YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Watch the full interview on Democracy Now! hereAfter Venezuela accused the United States of plotting another coup, State Department spokesperson Jen Psaki rejected the claim as "ludicrous." She said, "As a matter of longstanding policy, the United States does not support political transitions by nonconstitutional means." The response from reporters may surprise you.

On Democracy Now!, we get reaction from Miguel Tinker Salas, professor at Pomona College and author of “The Enduring Legacy: Oil, Culture, and Society in Venezuela” and the forthcoming book, “Venezuela: What Everyone Needs to Know.”
