<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;" class=""><span class="">The Embassy Protection Collective is calling on all peace and social justice organizations and people from all over the United States to join together tomorrow Saturday, May 18, for a massive mobilization
in Washington D.C. at the Venezuelan Embassy followed by a march to the White House. </span></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;" class="">On Thursday, May 16, federal agents invaded the Venezuelan Embassy and arrested the peaceful anti-war activists who were caring for the building as invited guests of the building's owner, the Venezuelan government. Despite
violent attacks from anti-Venezuelan government opposition, the ANSWER Coalition, Popular Resistance, and CODEPINK held regular rallies for months at the Embassy in support of international law and protecting the building from an illegal seizure by the Trump
Administration.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;" class="">Trump, Pompeo, and Bolton have succeeded at long last at carrying out the illegal seizure of the diplomatic embassy that belongs to the government of Venezuela. Nothing that self-proclaimed leader Juan Guaid<span class="">รณ</span><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>or
pretend-ambassador Carlos Vecchio say can change the reality that they are not the government of Venezuela. This is nothing more than a fiction designed to provide a fig leaf for an imperialist regime change operation against a sovereign government in Latin
America.</p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 1em;" class="">The national mobilization will focus on the growing war danger that targets both Venezuela and Iran. John Bolton and Mike Pompeo are pursuing a reckless, hyper-aggressive policy toward both Iran and Venezuela, and the
danger of a military conflict grows with each passing day.<br class="">
<br class="">
<span class="">Join the ANSWER Coalition, Popular Resistance, and CODEPINK at the Venezuelan Embassy at 1099 30th St. NW in Georgetown to demand an end to U.S. aggression against Venezuela and Iran! <br class="">
