MONTEVIDEO (Sputnik) – Venezuela is experiencing an economic and political turmoil.
"We are living in a matrix which intends [to launch] a military operation in Venezuela," Rodriguez said at a meeting of the Organization of American States (OAS) General Assembly in the Dominican Republic.
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro declared an economic emergency in Venezuela in January. The announcement came two days after Venezuela’s oil price dropped to $24 a barrel, the lowest mark in 12 years. Up to 96 percent of Venezuela’s budget depends on oil revenues. The measure has since been extended.
