Violent group that invaded Venezuela's embassy in Brazil abandoned facilities


The group of people who during the early hours of Wednesday violently invaded the facilities of the Venezuelan embassy in Brazil, located in Brasilia, left the diplomatic headquarters after the efforts made by the authorities, said the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jorge Arreaza.
“We announce that the group of people who violently entered our Embassy in Brasilia, has left our territory and facilities in a peaceful manner, by the management of the (Brazilian) authorities. We thank the Brazilian social movements for their courageous support”, wrote the Venezuelan Chancellor in his account on the Twitter social network.
Earlier, Venezuela’s Chargé d’ affaires in Brazil, Gerardo Delgado Maldonado, reported that the embassy was besieged by irregular citizens who broke into Venezuelan territory and entered illegally.
During these events, Arreaza held the Government of President Jair Bolsonaro responsible for the security of diplomatic personnel and the facilities of the embassy in Brazil, as well as demanded respect for the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
