Bolton dodges on military options for Venezuela

White House national security adviser John Bolton declined to say Thursday if the U.S. military would intervene in Venezuela to support opposition leader Juan Guaido, who declared himself interim president Wednesday.

“We’re working really around the clock here to do what we can to strengthen the interim government,” Bolton told reporters in the White House driveway, stressing diplomatic pressure and efforts to channel unspecified “revenues” to “the legitimate government.”
