Er US Govt happy to use it as a bargaining tool, it took Venezualan assets and handed them over to someone nobody ever elected to be President. Whether you like or dislike Maduro is irrelevant but one country deciding to confiscate assets and just hand them over to its favoured political pawn is not a good idea.
I must say I find it odd you like Trump because he doesnt start wars but you admire Putin because he does.
Nope I don't admire anybody starting wars but happy Russia got involved in Syria at the request of the Syrian Government unlike other parties.
