Direct Sanctions on Venezuelan President

  • The United States hit Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro with direct sanctions over a disputed and deadly weekend vote that, while consolidating his power, has largely isolated him as the dictator of a failing petro-state.

  • When exposed to visible light, the material, a “spongy” nickel organic crystalline structure, converted carbon dioxide (CO2) into carbon monoxide (CO) gas, which can be further turned into liquid fuels, solvents, and other useful products.
