WASHINGTON — Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel issued the following statement on Vice President Mike Pence’s meeting with interim Venezuelan President Juan Guaidó and his remarks in Colombia:
"Today, Vice President Mike Pence demonstrated the United States continues to stand with the Venezuelan people in their quest for freedom," said Chairwoman McDaniel. "The Vice President reaffirmed the Trump administration’s commitment – already clearly demonstrated through five executive orders,130 sanctions and close to $100 million in aid – to supporting interim President Juan Guaidó as he fights to restore democracy.
"President Trump will continue to pressure the Maduro regime for violating the rights of the Venezuelan people, who have suffered through years of oppression, corruption, and economic hardship. This administration continues to stand for freedom and opportunity at home and abroad."
