Statement on Venezuela

 Sharing these statements from the Venezualan government from Lee Camp. My initial thoughts: This is an unfortunate continuation of our longstanding practices of sticking our nose in others’ business that should not be our concern. I have no idea if Maduro is “good or bad” but that should be for the people of Venezuela to decide, which I’m sure they’re quite capable of doing. The U.S.A has intervened politically in Latin America since at least the 1940s and likely well before that. “No wars” sounds great; but should not be expected when our leaders bomb, broadcast and repeat and now essentially kidnap a foreign president. This is not what I voted for but I will continue to pray and work for peace as able: for the U.S.A, Venezuela and elsewhere; especially the most vulnerable countries and peoples.

Replace them with wisdom, humility, and a spirit of cooperation. Remind our leaders that they are public servants, not rulers, and they are accountable first...
