Protests against the Trump administration’s unilateral, undeclared war on Venezuela erupted across the U.S. and around the world over the weekend. Antiwar demonstrators took to the streets of Ankara, Brussels, Havana, London, Madrid, Mexico City and cities throughout Venezuela and across Latin America. Here in the U.S., protesters rallied in Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Seattle, Washington, D.C., and dozens of smaller communities from coast to coast. This is Seth Galinsky, who joined protesters outside the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, where President Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores are being held.

Seth Galinsky: “You know, I’m here because I think it’s outrageous what the U.S. government did in Venezuela. Whatever you may think of the Maduro government, that’s not the issue, but the U.S. government has no right to go into a sovereign country and basically openly say, ’We’re going to take the oil. We’re going to take the gold. We’re going to exploit the resources.’”
