MOSCOW, Dec 18 (Reuters) – Russia’s foreign ministry said on Thursday that it hoped that U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration did not make a fatal mistake over Venezuela and said that Moscow was concerned about U.S. decisions that threatened international navigation.
“We hope that the D. Trump administration, which is characterized by a rational and pragmatic approach, will not make a fatal mistake,” the ministry said.
It said that it hoped the U.S. would not wade into a situation that would have “unpredictable consequences for the entire Western Hemisphere”.
