Maduro criticized Argentina for participating in the “stealing” of the Venezuelan plane
Venezuela's president criticized his Argentine counterpart for his involvement in the US plan to hijack a Venezuelan plane. |
Maduro said in a televised message: “They stole our plane… “Milli” hijacked the plane from Venezuela. Javier Milli, who is the champion of the extreme right.” Maduro continued to say about Javier Milli, who became known as the Trump of Argentina: “He does crazy things, or he is crazy himself. Maybe it’s both.”
A Boeing 747 cargo plane owned by the Venezuelan company “Emtrasur” had been seized since landing in Argentina in 2022. This decision was made according to the claims about the purchase of this plane from Iran. Tehran has denied this claim.
The US Department of Justice announced in a statement that the Boeing 747 plane, which was purchased by a Venezuelan cargo company from Iran’s Mahan Airlines, was seized as part of “export restrictions related to Iran”. and has been transferred to America.
A few days ago, the head of the Civil Aviation Organization stated that the seized Venezuelan plane has nothing to do with Iran and said: “The unilateral actions of the United States endanger the security of passenger aviation.”
