This weekend, spring begins to bloom in Washington, D.C. as many thousands of tourists descend on the city to enjoy the temperate weather and thousands of blossoming cherry trees.

But this is not why the generals and arms dealers of NATO are coming to town. They are meeting next week to concoct new approaches to killing children and starving whole populations. They are meeting next week to celebrate their 70th bloody year in the war business and plot their total domination and continued poisoning of our planet. Antiwar activists will be there in force to put them on notice.

As of Friday, March 22, the U.S. Treasury has imposed sanctions against the Venezuelan Economic and Social Development Bank (BANDES). This comes after sanctions were imposed earlier in the week against the Venezuela General Mining Company, Minerven. The U.S. war machine is on a fiery track to overthrow the legitimate Venezuelan government and undermine the gains of the Bolivarian Revolution.

Juan Guaidó has explicitly threatened a coup if any righteous action is taken to resist the U.S. puppeteering of his role as the “interim president.” Despite corporate media’s sensationalism of reactionary opposition forces and subsequent media censorship of pro-Bolivarian forces, Venezuelan people continue to flood the streets to demand: U.S. Out!

We must keep the pressure up around the world in solidarity with Venezuela, under increased threat of military intervention as each day goes by.

Join activists and peace-loving people from across the world who are converging on Washington, D.C. this March 30th.

We will meet in front of the White House that Saturday at 1pm to tell Donald Trump, his generals, and his financial crooks that the people of the world are sick of racist and imperialist institutions like NATO.
