Violent clashes broke out in Venezuelan border towns, killing at least two people, as President Nicolas Maduro blocked humanitarian convoys from entering the country.
Troops loyal to Maduro fired tear gas and rubber bullets on Saturday at the protesters who tried to bring in the boxes of US-supplied aid across the border, wounding dozens.
Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido, who is supported by Washington, backed the efforts to import the aid, saying hundreds of thousands of people are in urgent need of food and medicine. Maduro sees the aid as part of a US plot to remove him from power.
Tom Long, a professor at the University of Warwick who researches Latin American politics, talks to Al Jazeera about the apparent clash of aid and politics.
