The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, affirmed that it is necessary to reinforce the battle for the defense of the oil prices in the world.
He denounced that from the White House have already been approved a set of economic, energy and financial aggressions against Venezuela, which will be announced in the coming days.
«I can tell you that the day before yesterday and yesterday there were held meetings in the White House filled with hate and madness … they have fallen into an obsession. We have to prepare ourselves», he ordered during a preparatory meeting of the 2017 Bolivarian Sovereignty civic-military exercise, along with the military high command.
He explained that he sees these actions as «a process of liberation from the imperialist moorings» and reiterated that he is a believer in diplomacy and is willing to speak with the US Government, but that we must prepare to get ahead «with Them or without them. «
