Venezuela has the record of fighting drug trafficking in the last 15 years, assured the President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, when denouncing the unfounded accusations by the United States (USA) about the alleged links with drug trafficking by the country’s authorities.
“Are the world’s terrorists, those who bomb towns, going to accuse us of being terrorists? If there is something I have done is to fight the mafias, our life has been the political and social fight”, he asserted.
President Maduro denounced the new attack against Venezuela amidst the fight against COVID-19 that tries to divert the attention of the international community to the health crisis that the US is currently facing, by becoming the largest country infected by the pandemic with more than 83,000 infected.
“They accuse me of having relations with the FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia), from Venezuela we built along with Colombia the peace agreements publicly recognized in all official documents, acknowledged by the UN Security Council (United Nations Organization).
The Head of State stressed that the criminal actions of the American empire are produced by the stability and control that the National Government has had in the face of the pandemic and its acts of terrorism:
“We are succeeding, and as we are succeeding the empire despairs. Let them despair, we are going to work for the protection of the people in a civic-military and police union”, concluded Maduro during a statement at Miraflores Palace.
