In line with the expansion of relations between Venezuela and China, Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro arrived in China with the aim of increasing bilateral relations, strengthening cooperation and helping to establish a new world order.

Afghan Voice Agency (AVA): Maduro's trip to China, following a meeting between a Venezuelan delegation including the country's vice president and oil minister, with Chinese officials, including Wang Yi, the country's foreign minister, who recently visited Shanghai. It is done, it takes place.
 
Maduro's deputy, Delsey Rodríguez, also wrote in a post on the X channel: The two countries are strengthening bilateral relations, expanding strategic cooperation and global joint action for the benefit of world peace and respect for the principles and goals of the United Nations Charter.
 
Maduro's visit to China takes place while Venezuela has been facing US sanctions policies especially during the last decade. These sanctions, which have been imposed on Venezuela in the political and economic sectors, are aimed at putting pressure on this country, overthrowing the Maduro government and installing a puppet government in line with Washington's policies.
 
The US sanctions have made the economic conditions of Venezuela very difficult. According to Delsey Rodríguez, the executive vice president of Venezuela, since 2015, the country has lost 29 billion dollars annually due to international sanctions, especially against the state oil company. These sanctions have also caused many losses, especially in the supply of food and medicine to Venezuela, so that the authorities of this country consider these sanctions to be blackmail by America and extortion by Washington.
 
This is while, especially during the past year, Venezuela has succeeded in overcoming crises by expanding relations with countries such as Russia, China and Iran, and now it is working to improve relations and form a political and economic bloc against Washington's autocracies.
 
In fact, now Maduro is trying to get closer to China and Russia, at the same time as the left-wing governments come to power in many Latin American countries, to form a new cooperation bloc that will change the current world order by gaining power. In this regard, Maduro said a while ago, a new era is coming and Latin America and the Caribbean region are trying to form a strong bloc. According to the president of Venezuela, such a political block can be a "new powerful axis" with the cooperation of Russia and China.
 
In fact, America's interventionist policies have now caused different countries to try in different ways to separate themselves from America's policies and in the direction of independence and the formation of new unions and blocs outside of dependence on America's policies and the dollar.
 
Eric Farnsworth, head of the office of the American Continental Council, a regional business group in Washington, says: The two main parties in America are concerned about the country's lack of an active trade program in Latin America. America must compete economically in the Western Hemisphere or it will lose, and we will not compete effectively.
 
According to published statistics, China's trade with Latin American countries has increased from 12 billion dollars in 2000 to 495 billion dollars in 2022, and China has become the largest trading partner of South America. Now, with Maduro's visit to China and Beijing's political officials welcoming the expansion of relations with this country, it seems that more practical steps have been taken in the direction of forming new economic blocs, outside of the will and support of Washington.
