Venezuela at the Security Council: “We’re here to avert the commission of an international crime.” @SMoncada_VEN
“These are extrajudicial killings. There's a killer roaming in the Caribbean, one that is seeking excuses to manufacture a conflict to attack to manipulate the principle of self-defence and he wants to kill more.” @SMoncada_VEN
“Who could believe that this large-scale military escalation in the Caribbean is truly aimed at combatting drugs trafficking? The truth is that the United States government, as been confirmed by international media, has already issued a secret order to authorize the use of military force in foreign territory, with the pretext of a false war against drug trafficking. At the same time, the CIA has also been authorized to conduct clandestine operations across Latin America and the Caribbean. All points to a new hour of aggression in our region.”
@SMoncada_VEN “There is another dangerous addiction that remains unspoken here, this is the addiction to oil. The United States is desperate to control all of the sources of oil around the world and it believes that Venezuelan oil belongs to it.” @SMoncada_VEN
“Today [the U.S.] stands to set the Caribbean ablaze to uphold its ideology of endless war, which its own people is rejecting (..) How many deaths will have to happen, how many years will have to pass before the entire world understands, as it has historically, that the United States is lying once again?”
