Russian President Vladimir Putin's spokesperson said that the Security Council 'paid much attention to the situation in Venezuela in light of the news about an attempted coup.'

Russian President Vladimir Putin has convened a meeting of his top national security officials as the U.S. expressed its support for a new push to overthrow the government of Venezuela.

"The meeting’s participants paid much attention to the situation in Venezuela in light of the news about an attempted coup," Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov told the state-run Tass Russian News Agency. White House national security adviser John Bolton, who has been among the most hawkish of Trump's officials, echoed Guaidó's calls for the military to defect and back the opposition-controlled National Assembly headed by Guaidó.

Both men have called on Moscow to immediately end its support for the Venezuelan government, which recently received up to 100 Russian personnel. The State Department suspected they had been sent to perform maintenance on the Russia-built S-300 surface-to-air defense systems bought by Maduro's predecessor, Hugo Chávez, who also faced a 2002 coup attempt reportedly linked to the U.S.

In addition to Russia, China and Iran have recently sent officials to Venezuela in support of the government and to provide humanitarian support.
