In response to an inquiry regarding Venezuela's Foreign Ministry's rejection of what it called a "ridiculous" US plan to designate the "nonexistent" Cartel de los Soles as a terrorist organization and the US imposition of sanctions on "members of the organization" - including Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and other senior officials, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning said on Friday that China consistently opposes unilateral sanctions that lack a basis in international law and have not been authorized by the UN Security Council, and opposes external forces interfering in Venezuela's internal affairs under any pretext.
China calls on the US to lift its illegal unilateral sanctions and do more to contribute to peace, stability, and development in Latin America and the Caribbean, Mao added.
