The United States Treasury Department has lifted sanctions previously imposed on Venezuela's embassy as Washington and Caracas work to restore diplomatic relations. The move comes as President Trump expressed support for interim President Delcy Rodriguez following the detention of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro during a US military operation. The sanctions removal represents a significant shift in US-Venezuela relations, which have been strained for years over disputes regarding Venezuela's government legitimacy and human rights concerns.
