Bolton should tell own country to stay out of Venezuela - Slutsky

MOSCOW. March 29 (Interfax) - The statement by United States national Security Advisor John Bolton regarding third-country military presence in Venezuela should be heeded primarily by Washington itself, head of the State Duma Foreign Affairs Committee Leonid Slutsky said.

"What Bolton said should be reflected back toward himself and the whole White House. It is them, primarily, who should not be deploying their military contingent [in Venezuela] and sending arms and money to the opposition, thereby provoking a military conflict in that country," Slutsky told Interfax on Friday.
