Human rights organization Amnesty International slammed Tuesday the political violence in Venezuela, where 39 people have died in anti-government protests since mid-February.
To avoid “civil war”, the country’s Foreign Minister Elias Jaua has called for dialogue with the opposition.
Clashes erupted once again in the Venezuelan capital on Monday night, as hooded activists erected barricades on the streets of Caracas, causing massive disruption.
Protesters smashed shop windows and set fire to cars before the riot police arrived and dispersed them using tear gas and water cannons.
