Doha says it is ready to contribute to international efforts for de-escalation and dialogue regarding Venezuela

Qatar said Saturday it is ready to contribute to any international effort aimed at reaching an “immediate peaceful solution” in Venezuela, calling for restraint and de-escalation.

In a statement, the Qatar Ministry of Foreign Affairs expressed deep concern over developments in Venezuela, following US attacks on the capital, Caracas, and the detention of President Nicolas Maduro and his wife.

The ministry urged all parties to exercise restraint, reduce tensions and pursue dialogue to address outstanding issues.

It reaffirmed Qatar’s position in support of the UN Charter and principles of international law, including the peaceful settlement of disputes.

Doha reiterated its readiness to assist in any international effort aimed at a peaceful resolution, saying it is keen to keep channels of communication open with all concerned parties.

Following the US strikes in Caracas and the detention of Maduro and his wife, US President Donald Trump said “we're going to run the country until such time as we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition.”

Speaking at a news conference Saturday, Trump said Maduro and his wife were aboard a ship heading to New York, adding that a decision would be made on whether he would be tried in New York or Miami.

Trump also said “very large” US oil companies would be spending “billions of dollars” to fix Venezuela's “badly broken” oil infrastructure and “start making money for the country.”

I got something they can work on: they have absolute control over Hamas, as its bigwigs still live in luxury in Qatar. They could get them to disarm per the peace agreement tomorrow. Pill that off, then they can start worrying about what’s going on in the other hemisphere

De-escalation?

They make it sound like it’s a military actions and there’s a war going on.

The US has maduro. There are no other hostilities to de-escalate from.

This can of worms has barely opened. The Cartels, Military Generals, Muduro allies are still there. Now we see if the civilians are ready to take their country back. I hope for their sake they are. Freedom is a heavy drug, I hope they get it. Hell. I hope we can hold on to ours. Regards.

Qatar is playing a double game. Support world terror and condemn world terror. They need a regime change there as well.

This is the same Qatar that sends millions of dollars to Hamas, right? Yeah, letting them get involved in Venezuela isn't a good idea.

If they truly wanted to help they would welcome the Palestinians into their country and feed them.

Venezuela real power holders did not disappear with the capture of Nicolás Maduro. Speaking with Steve Bannon, Oscar Ramirez explained that while Maduro’s removal is historic, the regime itself remains intact through two men who still control the military, justice system, and cartel networks inside the country.

Remember Pres Trump saying something about a second wave? .I trust what Oscar is saying.

The job is not finished.

This is why Chucky and shifty and co. are going to try and block Trump from unraveling the global election fraud nexus that runs through all America’s enemies.

And terror orgs, like Hamas , which is also said to have a presence in Venezuela.

Qatar is duplicitous, if not implicated.

No wonder they want to insert themselves.

Isn’t Venezuela a member of OPEC? That will bring their status down a notch. Now go after Saudi Arabia for the 9/11 attacks.
