Moscow on Wednesday warned Venezuela's self-declared interim president Juan Guaido against "inviting foreign intervention" by using aid shipments as "cover" and called for dialogue between the government and opposition.

Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Moscow was concerned about "threats from the US that are actively supported... by Venezuela's opposition, essentially inviting foreign intervention."
Lavrov said US threats are "unquestionably a violation of the UN charter and direct meddling in domestic affairs of an independent country."
