Carnegie Endowment for International Peace | Virtual Event

Description: Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro’s close ties with China, Cuba, Iran, and Russia have kept him afloat for years despite the nation’s painful economic crisis. More than seven million Venezuelans have fled the country and hundreds of thousands have attempted to cross the U.S. southern border. Organized crime and drug trafficking are rampant, and Maduro has now set the stage for the annexation of a chunk of neighboring Guyana. With U.S. sanctions likely to snap back on April 18, what can the United States do to better address the Venezuela problem it faces? Please join the director of the Carnegie Endowment’s American Statecraft Program, Christopher S. Chivvis, for a special in-person edition of the Pivotal States series and a discussion of Washington’s strategic alternatives in its policy toward Venezuela with Ryan C. Berg and Carolina Jimenez Sandoval. The event will also stream concurrently on the Carnegie Endowment’s YouTube channel.
