Maduro Cites U.S. Threats as a Factor Strengthening Venezuelan Unity
According to the English section of webangah News Agency,citing Venezuela’s official news agency (AVN),President Nicolás Maduro stated at a local meeting that the Venezuelan people support their armed forces and stand ready to confront military threats.
Referring to U.S. military threats, he said, “No matter what they do, in any form or location, they will never harm Venezuela. We are invincible, and we will continue strengthening national security with power. the strength of our people guarantees our security.”
The Venezuelan leader also announced the discovery of a new extreme right-wing plot last night, adding that “they conspire every day,” and for the criminal far-right tied to María Corina, sabotage, violence, and crime remain their only options.
Maduro emphasized that national unity is key to Venezuela’s successful navigation through these challenges. he cited polls showing that over 90 percent of the population supports the armed forces.
He attributed public hatred toward the far right in Venezuela to their endorsement of U.S. military intervention and said recent military, diplomatic, political, and media pressures have further united the people.
In recent months, under the pretext of combating drug trafficking, the United States has increased its military presence in the Caribbean Sea near Venezuela’s borders.
The White House has targeted vessels near Venezuelan waters on similar grounds but has not released details verifying whether those targeted in over 20 attacks across the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific were actually traffickers. Experts warn that even if traffickers were targeted, such actions amount to extrajudicial executions.
