President Nicolás Maduro today denounced that his Colombian counterpart, Ivan Duque, plans to carry out attacks and acts of sabotage to destabilize Venezuela before leaving the government.
According to a report in the presidential press, Maduro assured that he had received direct reports of a meeting between the Colombian head of state and extremist sectors in Bogotá to draw up destabilization strategies against that neighboring country before leaving the Casa de Nariño.
You have received a mandate from Duque to deepen the terrorist attacks on the civil service and the sabotage of Venezuelan social life before he leaves the presidency on August 7,” Maduro said in a telephone conversation with delegates at the first national meeting of activists of the movement We are Venezuela (MSV).
He explained that the target of the attack would be the National Electric System (SEN) and the drinking water supply.
In this context, he instructed the security forces, the people’s power and the working class to remain vigilant and protect the operation of public services.
Maduro also pointed out that a sabotage maneuver is to be carried out to halt the process of recovery and economic growth, “that no one dares to continue their petty wars on currency and trade. We are progressing at a good pace in the economic recovery and it will continue.”
He called for concern for the country’s stability and security, stressing that the Venezuelan people have shown that they want to build peace, progress, prosperity and progress.
In return, he called for pooling efforts to consolidate a new era of expansion and consolidation of policies aimed at favoring the majority.
