let's start with this, president invadehreatening to venezuela.he news just coming out from ap. >> well, yes, they may know about their strategy of regime change. marco rubio is probably the person who is most in charge of this. and, you know, he has called for trumptary coup and other administration officials -- this is really unusual. you can go back to the coup in 1973 in some at which the u.s. was involved in a many other coups. they never said it before it happened that they were in favor of such a thing. of course, the threat of military intervention is illegal under the u.n. charter. i think what is missing a lot from the news is the financial embargo they already have in venezuela, which is killing people. it is depriving -- it is worsening the shortages of essential medicines and worsening the food situation. and this is also illegal under the charter of the organization of american states, and it is also illegal under otherer conventions that the u.s. has signed, the hague conventions. and yet it seems like everybody, almost everybody wh

we've talked a lot about venezuela. it's been the problem child of our region for the past two decades. in may, we watched as a corrupt maduro regime swept the country's presidential election, which had been called fraudulent by the u.s. and our global partners. last congress, i introduced legislation that passed in the ndaa that would enhance the state department's capabilities to respond to propaganda and disinformation. so mr. merton, given venezuela's prosecution of political opponents and suppression of freedom of expression, can the gec be used to amplify peaceful protests while highlighting the mass human rights abuses occurring in venezuela and what other tools do you have available to handle that? >> thanks so much for the question. we've not been at all shy about calling out the venezuelans and drawing attention to their abuse of the regime's abuse of its own people. and we have done that, you know, in various -- not least in the organization of american states. and just at the recent summit, here in washingto

the rights of venezuela? and what other tools do you have for handling that? >> we've not been at all shy about calling out the venezuelans and their abuse, the regime's abuse of their own people. we've done that in the very forum of the united states. just at the recent summit here in washington, we -- the oas, we were able to get an unprecedented resolution in support of members of the oas condemning venezuela and putting them on a path to perhaps eve eventual suspension from that organization. again, we will not be shy. we have used targeted sanctions to focus on those people who were responsible for tormenting the venezuelan people. >> can you say specifically whether you see a role for the global center in this area? >> i'm not an expert in that particular thing, and i would be happy to take that back and get you an answer on that. >> when you talk about what's been done in oas, can you talk about the benefits of removing venezuela from the oas that you see? >> we have discussed that in the resolution we

military options for venezuela? quite a military option. >> absolutely. so that was in bedminster back in august. standing alongside the u.n. ambassador haley, tillerson, openly talking about the possibility of a military option. not taking it off the table as he was considering additional sanctions. the president was in a meeting with several top foreign policy advisers. including h.r. mcmaster. he asked them about the possibility of invading venezuela, whether that may be an option to consider. the senior administration official who confirmed this to me emphasized there were no iminent plans for any kind of a military strike on venezuela and characterized it really as the president thinking out loud. he didn't just do it one time. he was doing it with his advisers talking about the possibility of a military invasion of venezuela and then also probed several latin american leaders about it in the subsequent month. the colombian president and latin american leaders. >> if you take that idea to latin american leaders

allowing us to break the ties from venezuela.nk this is something that's imperative that we do, but i hear over and over again and investor, you are talking about better governance. we've got to do more. miss lynch you were talking about we have to do more and help these economies. the numbers i have tol pulled up, central america from mexico down to panama, there's roughly 171 million people over the course of the last ten years we have given $5.746 billion in foreign aid to el salvador, nicaragua, honduras, mexico and panama. $5.746billion. people are leaving the northern triangle because of poor governance. we are putting money into our aid program to get good governance yet were not getting the return on that. i'd like to hear from both of you. what would you do? we have to do something different. we can't do the same thing over and over again. i throw in the war on drugs, we spent over $2 trillion in the 70s. i think were all convinced. columbia has more cocoa planted today than the did with the drug cartels. what we need to

mcmaster restrainingly urged against the idea of invading venezuela. they warned the dramatic response to the crisis could back fire. our source chalked up the president's comments to, quote, thinking out loud. but the following day the president said this. >> i'm not ruling out a military option. and we have troops all over the world in places that are very, very far away. venezuela is not very far away. and the people are suffering. and they're dying. we have many options for venezuela, including a possible military option. >> now, over the next month, the president kept pressing latin american leaders about invading venezuela, including on the sidelines of the u.n. general assembly. all leaders firmly opposed the idea. president trump has repeatedly tried to ratchet up pressure on the socialist government of the venezuela. overnight the president ordered the armed forces not lowering their guard. he said no empire is going to choose for us. >>> dna testing is being conducted on separated migrant parents and children as part of the family reunificati

leading a military invasion of venezuela just last year.want to bring in the vice president of the america society and the council of the americas. so, you know, one issue here is that this is kind of doing a favor for the venezuelan leader, right, to create this idea of a foreign menace who's ready to storm the gates. >> certainly one way to look at it. the regime has certainly taken advantage of that as well. every time the united states says or does something that's perceived to be against the regime in power in caracas, they use that for propaganda purposes to say the imperialists are coming, they're trying to take us over. we need to ral ily against that threat. it has played in that way. >> so beyond raising this with his senior aides, and apparently surprising them, h.r. mcmaster at the time saying, no, we really can't do this, the president also called up some foreign leaders, latin american leaders, and spoke about this idea. when they hear that from the u.s. president, do they take it seriously? >> well, they have to take it serio

venezuela sits on the human rights council. in the end, the united states could not convince enough countries to stand up and declare the human rights council was no longer worthy of its name. why this happened is telling. the first and most honest reason is that authoritarian regimes are happy with the status quo. many seek membership to protect their own and their allies' human rights records from scrutiny. russia, china, cuba, egypt, all benefit from making a mockery of the human rights council. it is no surprise that they openly resisted our efforts to reform it. what was more baffling was the resistance we received from groups and countries that should know better. from those who believe in human rights and human admitted. first, the nongovernmental institutions, or ngo's. private groups that usually do good work on behalf of human rights. they agreed with the need to keep human rights violators off of the council. so you can imagine our surprise when they came out publicly against our reforms, telling other countries to v
