Pompeo Says ‘More Sanctions to Be Had’ to Pressure Venezuela

The steps outlined by Pence may include forms of economic or diplomatic pressure by the U.S., a second official said. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo also said earlier on CNN’s “State of the Union” that more sanctions are possible on Venezuela without offering details on what measures the U.S. may be planning, as regional leaders prepare to meet in Colombia. Pence’s announcement will come more than a month after the U.S. recognized Juan Guaido as Venezuela’s interim president.
