They are "preparing a dangerous provocation with the humanitarian convoy." "The situation in Venezuela has reached a critical point," said Zajárova.

"A dangerous and large-scale provocation is scheduled for February 23: the crossing of the border of Venezuela by the so-called 'humanitarian convoy' incited and directed by Washington," he added.

"This would be accompanied by a clash of supporters and opponents of the current government, and a suitable pretext for a military action is being forged in order to evict from power the current legitimate president of the country," the spokeswoman for Russian Foreign Ministry continued.  (RHC)
