US pledges Venezuela support ‘for as long as needed’, says Southern Command chief

The commander of United States Southern Command has reaffirmed Washington’s commitment to supporting Venezuela, stating that American assistance will continue for as long as it is required. General Francis L. Donovan made the comments this week, emphasising the ongoing nature of US involvement in the troubled South American nation. The pledge comes amid continued political and economic instability in Venezuela, which has prompted sustained international engagement from the United States and other Western nations. General Donovan’s remarks suggest the US does not anticipate a near-term resolution to Venezuela’s current crisis, indicating preparations for a prolonged period of American engagement with the country. The statement reflects broader US strategic interests in the region, where Venezuela’s political situation has drawn significant diplomatic attention from Washington in recent years.
