Milan, 19 Dec. (LaPresse) – US President Donald Trump, in a telephone interview with NBC News, said he does not rule out the possibility of war with Venezuela. ‘I don't rule it out, no,’ said the White House tenant. On Tuesday, Trump ordered a ‘blockade’ of oil tankers subject to sanctions arriving in and departing from Venezuela, increasing pressure on Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, and in recent days the US has also seized an oil tanker near Venezuela. The Trump administration's campaign has also led to 28 attacks on vessels that the US claims are used to transport drugs, raids in which more than 100 people have been killed. ‘I'm not discussing it,’ Trump told NBC News when asked if he ruled out the possibility that such actions could lead to war. Then, under pressure, he confirmed that it was a possibility and that there would be further seizures of oil tankers.
