The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela repudiates the most recent attempts at blackmail and interference in its internal affairs by the Government of the United States of America, which constitute an ultimatum against the entire Venezuelan society and, through coercion and threats, seeks to impose coup plotting, disown the institutions of the Republic, apply new coercive measures, and destabilize the Venezuelan economy and the well-being of its people.

In the letter, Venezuela absolutely and unequivocally rejects the neocolonialist interventionism that Washington attempts to impose against a country that fully exercises its national sovereignty and that has the right to choose its own destiny without the constant pressure and aggression of a government complicit in the massacre and genocide in Gaza, with a bloody history of human rights violations in Our Americas and a record of repression of its own indigenous, Afro-descendant and migrant population.
Likewise, it highlights that its institutions will continue to comply with the laws and the national Constitution, in accordance with the mandate received by the Venezuelan people. Likewise, it will take all necessary measures to continue the course of economic growth and social development that it has undertaken with its own efforts, in the midst of the hostilities applied against its citizens.
