"This is the moment for all Venezuelans, in uniform and without uniform, all in the street," continued Lopez.

Hit. The "Freedom" operation deployed by Guaidó was intended to demonstrate the flaws of the army and gain adhesions. The United States was destroyed with a plan approved by the same Donald Trump and established by the Security Council (NSC, for its acronym in English) which directs John Bolton. . It was Bolton who negotiated for weeks with Vladimir Padrino López, Minister of Popular Power of Defense, so that he changed sides and drags behind him not only a good deal of military leadership, but also the Supreme Court of Justice (TSJ) which: with a declaration without appeal, it would push Maduro to leave the country. But neither Padrino López nor his generals, nor the TSJ gave any order that would have proved treason.

Bolton told all this openly to the American press, and even let it be known that Maduro would have been on the verge of taking the plane to Havana, but that is Vladimir Putin himself who convinced him to resist.

obviously the Russians deny the plot. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Thursday denied the American version that the Venezuelan president was determined to resign and the Kremlin convinced him not to do so.. And he maintained that it was "a war of information launched by the White House".

"A lot of information has come out today." Since dawn, Trump's deceiver, Bolton, has coordinated the coup by calling Brazil, Colombia and Chile. Bolton coordinated the shot prepared from the United States, "Maduro finally said that he was away and in the shelter.

Cleaning After the anguish and with the help of the Russian and Cuban intelligence services, Maduro sat down to purge the leadership of the Chavista power. Manuel Ricardo Cristopher Figuera, director of the all-powerful Bolivarian intelligence service, better known as Sebin, was the man most to fall. In his place, a man with his right hand, Diosdado Cabello, General Gustavo Gonzalez Lopez, who had already held the position in the body.

But who resisted the cleansing was the appointed Defense Minister, who appeared on Thursday at a military parade with the President, and took the opportunity to introduce himself on the opposite path of the guaidó: "These are the peaceful demonstrations that you call: that of arms, that of violence, that of death. This is the peaceful demonstration that you are walking with this joke on the street and here are the results, "said Padrino López.

"They could not with (Hugo) Chávez and I say it today: they have not been able or will not be able to do it with us either. They do not understand the rebellion we carry inside to defend our Constitution, Independence, "added Maduro, who finally targeted Guaidó and López:" They thought that thousands of people would arrive and take refuge in them. embbadies ".

Without asylum After leaving the house, Leopoldo López was transferred to the Chilean Embbady in Caracas. But diplomatic negotiations have failed and was greeted at the Embbady of Spain with his wife Lilian TintorAfter members of the Sebin tribe conducted a warrantless search of their home, as reported by Tintori.

"The Fifth Court of First Instance of the Criminal Judicial District of the Metropolitan Region of Caracas has Revoked the Detention Measure at the Home of Citizen Leopoldo López for Having Flagrantly Violated it," says Trial ordering the arrest of Lopez. Spain responded by stating that the Venezuelan politician and his family "did not ask for asylum" and that they remain at the embbady as a & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; Guests of Jesús Silva Fernández.
