🗓️ MILESTONE | 10 Years of US Sanctions Against Venezuela

🇺🇸 In 2015, Barack Obama issued an executive order declaring Venezuela an “unusual and extraordinary threat" to US national security. This move marked a turning point in US-Venezuela relations, paving the way for a sweeping sanctions regime that has targeted nearly all economic sectors and high-ranking officials, further deepening the country’s crisis.
