Marco Rubio: “We don't want [Venezuela] descending into chaos.”

Likewise, we expect all political actors to support these talks which represent the best chance Venezuela has had in thirty years to peacefully achieve not just a free and fair election but an enduring democracy.

If that's the interim authorities that try to do harm to this process or stop complying, then we're gonna have a problem. But I don't expect that. I really, really don't.

We do not want to be overly dependent on any country in the world.

The alternative is going to be either violence and armed conflict within the country, or back to the way things have been for the last 20 years, which have not been good for the people of Venezuela.
