Dutch–Venezuelan crisis of 1908 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dutch–Venezuelan crisis of 1908
In 1908 a dispute broke out between the Netherlands and the president of Venezuela Cipriano Castro on the grounds of the harbouring of refugees in Curaçao. Venezuela expelled the Dutch ambassador, prompting a Dutch dispatch of three warships - a ''pantserschip'' (coastal defence ship), the ''Jacob van Heemskerk'', and two protected cruisers, the ''Gelderland'' and the ''Friesland''. The Dutch warships had orders to intercept every ship that was sailing under the Venezuelan flag. On 12 December, the ''Gelderland'' captured the Venezuelan coast guard ship ''Alix'' off Puerto Cabello.〔''New York Times'', 14 December 1908, (Dutch at war with Venezuela )〕 She and another ship the ''23 de Mayo'' were interned in harbor of Willemstad. With their overwhelming naval superiority, the Dutch enforced a blockade on Venezuela's ports. A few days later, General Castro left for Berlin, nominally for a surgical operation. In his absence, an uprising in Caracas overthrew his regime. This effectively ended the war with the Netherlands. ==References==
