Are you aware the Maduro's regime stole billions of dollar from Venezuela through the oil company and through the currency exchange control?

Are you aware that's why some sanctions were applied to the people involved in those crimes? Sanctions aren't against Venezuela, but against selected government officials.

For example check the previous oil minister of Venezuela, he has to pay more than 1 billion dollars due to fraudulent activity https://www.reuters.com/article/us-venezuela-ramirez/u-s-judge-rules-former-venezuelan-oil-minister-owes-1-4-billion-idUSKCN1Q401J

As always, defending socialists regimes is easy while living in a non socialist country.

Thank goodness the necessary measures will be taken soon and freedom should be restored, just like what happened in Panama.
