Venezuela had already denounced to the world in 2019 deaths of children with medical treatments after theft of Citgo by Guaidó and the United States.

When CITGO made the criminal decision not to cover treatments and surgeries for Venezuelan children, we felt immense helplessness. We denounced it at the UN, we spoke with the recipient governments. Several cases were resolved, but children who never got to be intervened also died”. Thus was denounced on Saturday by the Chancellor of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Jorge Arreaza, recalling the alerts launched in May 2019.

The Venezuelan Chancellor‘s denounce, through his account on social networks, @jaarreaza, Is made after this Friday irrefutable evidence was shown of the theft of resources in dollars from the Simón Bolívar Foundation of Citgo, which the Venezuelan company in the United States allocated to the payment of medical treatments of Venezuelans in the world.

The confessions of the financial logistics operator of the terrorist movement “Voluntad Popular”, Roland Carreño, captured with weapons, large sums of currency in cash and criminal documentation and evidence on his cell phones and home, revealed how the resources of Venezuelans are being systematically looted to personal benefit of various leaders of the opposition right wing and the financing of terrorist actions recorded over time.

The theft of Citgo occurred as part of the Unilateral Coercive Measures imposed by Trump’s government against Venezuela, which claimed to attend to the requests of the National Assembly in contempt, on whose board was Juan Guaidó.

On that occasion, Arreaza denounced the impossibility of transferring funds from Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) to an Italian health institution, in charge of caring for children who need bone marrow transplantation. This blockade caused the death of Venezuelan children.

We try to pay the expenses by state banks. Bank transactions were rejected, until resources were blocked. We never imagined that those Citgo resources for health, life, would be diverted to finance political parties and opposition conspiracies”, added this Saturday, October 31, in a second message, Chancellor Arreaza.
