Last Friday, US Secretary of State John Kerry avoided making any statements relative to President Nicolás Maduro's call for dialogue and reappointment of ambassadors to each country made last week. Further, Kerry described as "unacceptable" the use of force against Venezuelan demonstrators.

On Monday, Carney commented that the United States was worried about the situation in Venezuela and pointed out that it was working along with the Organization of American States (OAS) and allies in the region to bring calm to the country and true dialogue among Venezuelans.

Moreover, the United States said the Venezuelan government should immediately release detained demonstrators, allow independent journalists do their jobs, and stop restraining information via television, radio, or Internet, Carney added.
