What Trump’s Ousting of Venezuela’s Maduro Means for China

The shock US ouster of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro represents a setback for China’s strategy in Latin America, complicating its plans to increase investment in the region.

China is Venezuela’s largest buyer of crude and biggest creditor. It consistently backed Maduro’s government, offering support against US sanctions and isolation. China could now be forced to recalibrate its approach to Latin America, though it’s likely to stop short of direct confrontation with the US.
