Turkey says political dispute in Venezuela may lead to chaos

Turkey's foreign minister joined President Tayyip Erdogan on Thursday in showing solidarity with Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro after the opposition leader declared himself interim president, saying that such a declaration may lead to chaos. "There is an elected president and another person declares himself president, and some countries recognise this. This may cause chaos," Mevlut Cavusoglu told the A Haber news channel. "We are against the isolation of countries. I hope the situation will be solved peacefully."
