An international relations expert says the Government is waiting for clearer direction from the United States before determining its next steps on Venezuela, avoiding statements that could be read as diverging from Washington’s policy.
In a telephone interview with Guardian Media, University of the West Indies International Relations lecturer Dr Michał Pawiński rejected suggestions that the Government has been silent since the United States removed Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on January 3.
