Head of the International Committee Leonid Slutskiy commented on events in Venezuela

Leonid Slutskiy, Chairman of the Committee on International Affairs, believes that the United States is behind the attempt to overthrow the legitimate President of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro. The United States continues the policy of external pressure and interference in the affairs of sovereign states, but only the people of Venezuela must decide who will be the head of state, the parliamentarian stressed

“As for Venezuela: very rude and destructive. The United States continues the policy of external pressure and interference in the affairs of sovereign states. Now it is Caracas’s turn. Washington has already announced the recognition of opposition leader Juan Guaidó as an interim president of the country and threatened to toughen the sanction if the power is not transferred to him, allowing otherwise ”all options for action“ on its part.

There is no protection of democracy. This is another forceful imposition of American hegemony and the demolishing of unwanted regimes.

Only the people of Venezuela must decide who will be the president of the country. And only by means of elections.

As we know, on January 10, President Nicolás Maduro held the inauguration ceremony and legally assumed the office of the head of state.

However, the United States with manic persistence rely on the opposition leader, who, in their opinion, should remove Maduro and lead Venezuela to a pro-American course. Thus, they expect to break one of the few strongholds in Latin America that oppose the concept of a unipolar world.

We all have already seen the consequences of such a policy in the sad examples of the former Yugoslavia, Libya, Iraq, Syria, and Ukraine. A number of these countries have lost statehood, the economy of others has been destroyed, and in others, there is a war,” said Leonid Slutskiy Slutsky Leonid Eduardovich Slutsky
