Colombian government intends an armed conflict against Venezuela to divert internal protest


The Colombian government intends an armed conflict against Venezuela to divert the internal protest that the neighboring nation is currently experiencing, denounced last Friday the president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro.
“I have information that the Colombian Government and the Southern Command are thinking of provocative acts on the Colombian-Venezuelan border to try to divert attention from the popular uprising against Iván Duque”, said Maduro.
During the closing of the 1st meeting with the workers of the National Rail System, in the company of the Worker’s Productive Councils (CPT) of the basic companies of Guayana, from the workshops of the Caracas Metro, Maduro called on the Armed Forces to be vigilant before this new warmongering attack by the government of Duque:
“The Bolivarian National Armed Forces must be alert and vigilant. As Commander in Chief, I tell you to prepare to defend the peace and sovereignty of Venezuela”, he emphasized.
For a week, there have been protests and demonstrations in that country in rejection of Duque’s policies, as well as their dissatisfaction with the “package” that he intends to implement in the New Granadean nation. These journeys have been repressed by the state’s security forces, just as has been decreed a curfew in several cities of that nation.
