When questioned by journalist Boris Castellanos in the Zona Digital segment of the 41st edition of the “Con Maduro+” program, about the conversations in Mexico between representatives of Venezuela and the United States Government about the agreement signed for the lifting of sanctions against the country, the president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro Moros, denounced the failure of the North American government to comply with these agreements. “They never complied,” he asserted.
This way, the head of state stressed that, despite the nine private meetings with the United States, of which six have been held in Qatar and three in Milan, with the participation of figures such as the president of the National Assembly, Jorge Rodríguez, and Governor Héctor Rodríguez representing Venezuela, the United States has not respected the agreements with the Bolivarian nation. In this sense, he also referred to the release of the diplomat Alex Saab, whom the US Government unjustly kept in prison for 1,280 days:
“We have made the denounce for that framework, but on the outside there was an agreement to achieve the release of the political kidnapped, Venezuelan diplomat Alex Saab, on December 20 of last year, it was a swap, they returned our tortured diplomat, We returned to them a group of CIA agents who came to invade Venezuela·.
After that, since January of this year, the United States has been threatening our country that it is going to remove license 44, it is a colonialist license, because “what the United States intends to do is monitor and control Venezuela’s oil industry.”
The Venezuelan president assured that Venezuela will continue with its own economic model, with or without licenses from the United States. “I tell the workers, the businessmen, the businesswomen and all our people, we have taken our own course of work, our own economic model, with threats, with sanctions we learned to work and recover. “We are going to move forward with or without a license. We are not a gringo colony!”
