Lula da Silva: In talks to avoid US invasion of Venezuela

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has spoken out against a possible US ground invasion of Venezuela and said he is ready to mediate to de-escalate tensions.

US President Donald Trump has ordered the deployment of a large naval force in the Caribbean, as part of what he says is a fight against drug trafficking.

On the other hand, according to Caracas, his goal is to overthrow the government of Nicolas Maduro.
