Foreign Policy
Venezuela positions itself as an anti-imperialist state leading resistance to US hegemony in the Americas. It founded ALBA (Bolivarian Alliance) with Cuba, and used oil revenues to build influence through Petrocaribe, which provided subsidised oil to Caribbean states.
Venezuela maintains close ties with Russia, China, Iran, and Cuba, and has withdrawn from the OAS. The Maduro government faces sanctions from the US and EU, and many countries do not recognise its legitimacy. The Essequibo claim against Guyana adds a territorial dimension to Venezuela's diplomatic isolation.
