MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 05th April, 2019) Russia will continue to deliver humanitarian aid to the crisis-hit Venezuela, Sergey Morozov, the adviser for Russian Foreign Ministry's Department for Humanitarian Cooperation and Human Rights, said on Friday.
"I do not know when the next delivery of humanitarian aid [to Venezuela] will be, but it will continue," the diplomat said.
In late March, the Russian Foreign Ministry's spokeswoman, Maria Zakharova, announced that Russia, following a request from the Venezuelan government, delivered another batch of humanitarian aid to the Bolivarian republic, which is in dire need of food and medicine.
Venezuela has been in a state of a severe political crisis for over two months, since Venezuelan opposition-led National Assembly leader Juan Guaido illegally proclaimed himself interim president in January, contesting last year's re-election of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Guaido has received support from the United States and a number of other countries. China, Cuba, Russia and and other states have endorsed Maduro as Venezuela's only legitimate president.
