The terrorist incursion neutralized on Sunday, May 3, had the goal of neutralizing high government officials, as well as the capture and extraction of the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, towards the United States.
This is confirmed by a new testimony, that of the second mercenary captured, Airan Berry, a former member of the US Special Forces, hired by Jordan Goudreau, of the Silvercorp company, hired by Juan Guaidó to commit terrorist acts in Venezuela.
The video of Berry was presented this Thursday by the vice president for Communication, Culture and Tourism, Jorge Rodríguez, who affirmed that the information offered by the Americans allows for rapid progress in the line of investigation that the country’s intelligence corps have investigated in the case.
“It is going to cost the Trump administration a lot to get rid of the responsibility it has, because investigative processes have already been opened in Congress and in courts in the United States of America”, emphasized Rodríguez from Miraflores Palace, referring to what was reported by Associated Press on recent inquiries by the US Congress to the State Department about Goudreau’s plans.
In his testimony, Berry, who carried out missions in Iraq in 2003, 2005 and 2007, explains to the authorities his mission to take the Maiquetía International Airport and that of La Carlota (in Caracas) to allow free passage for foreign aircraft landing for the hijacking and extraction of President Nicolás Maduro to the United States.
In the same way, they had planned the takeover of Miraflores Palace, of the General Directorate of Military Counterintelligence (DGCIM) and the Bolivarian National Intelligence Service (Sebin)
Likewise, was planned the removal of the president of the National Constituent Assembly (ANC), Diosdado Cabello; of the Executive Vice President of the Republic, Delcy Rodríguez; of the sectoral vice-president Tareck El Aissami; of the Minister for Defense, Vladimir Padrino López, among other high officials.
Berry arrived in Colombia in January and joined Luke Denman, another of the hired mercenaries, and was welcomed by Antonio José Sequea in Riohacha with the purpose of training terrorist deserters in three camps located in Riohacha, on the north coast, where he met drug trafficker Elkin López, a.k.a. “double wheel”.
He also confirmed that the one who was leading, and who had the most knowledge regarding the incursion in Venezuela was terrorist Antonio Sequea Torres, who coordinated the action in Caracas with drug trafficker José Alberto Socorro, a.k.a. “Pepero”, facilitator of the vehicles and the weapons arsenal in La Guaira.
Rodríguez added that the investigations make clear the direct link between President Iván Duque; Colombian drug traffickers, the DEA and sectors of the Venezuelan right wing with the training of terrorists in Colombia.
This link commits Juan Guaidó, Iván Simonovis and other members of the right wing with Colombian drug traffickers like Elkin López, a.k.a. “double wheel,” he said.
López was developing, together with the so-called “Los Giraldo” clan, a strong confrontation against the criminal band “Los Urabeños” on the Caribbean Coast for control of the area and the handling of drug trafficking and extortion, explained Rodríguez.
López Torres “is a drug trafficker, responsible for more than three dozen murders in Colombia, he is a butcher”, he said.
Likewise, he presented the interview made this Wednesday by journalist Fernando del Rincón to JJ. Rendón on CNN in Spanish, where Rendón confirms that he signed the contract with Silvercorp.
This Wednesday, President Maduro presented the first testimony of the ex-green beret American citizen, Luke Denman, who affirmed that he would receive a payment between 50,000 and 100,000 dollars to undertake the terrorist action called “Operation Gideon”.
“I was hired to get to Caracas, secure an airport and follow the plan. My mission was to take over an airport until they could safely transfer Maduro to a plane to the US”, said Denman.
Meanwhile, the Bolivarian National Armed Force, police forces and the people have so far captured 23 terrorists who were coming in the boats captured on May 3.
Rodríguez emphasized that all the coastal towns are activated to keep track of terrorists who may be trying to flee the national territory.
