"In a statement, spokeswoman Jen Psaki denied allegations that the U.S. government was supporting the demonstrations, calling such charges “baseless and false.”
“We support human rights and fundamental freedoms — including freedom of expression and of peaceful assembly — in Venezuela as we do in countries around the world,” she said. “But as we have long said, Venezuela’s political future is for the Venezuelan people to decide. We urge their government to engage all parties in meaningful dialogue.”"
