as posted by the channel

Andrew Marr was joined by US Ambassador Daniel Shapiro to discuss Donald Trump's aims for Venezuela, after the American army seized an oil tanker.

The seizure of the tanker by US troops has escalated tensions between Washington and Caracas.

Russia’s Vladimir Putin has thrown his support behind Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro as fears of a US invasion intensify.

Mr Putin spoke with Mr Maduro over the phone on Thursday, reassuring him of Moscow’s support for his government just hours after US troops seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela.

Donald Trump has demanded Mr Maduro leave his office or face military action from the United States.

Mr Putin told the Venezuelan leader of his intentions to continue their strategic partnership despite growing pressures from the US.
