Complete statement

We view this attack on Mexican businessmen as one of the many attempts to hinder the Bolivarian government's efforts to put an end to the economic war against our people, in order to avoid the brutal economic and financial blockade that imperial power centers and their satellite governments have attempted to impose. illegally against our homeland.

Venezuela warns against the prejudicial functioning of international law designed for political ends by the cartel of Lima and executed in this case by the government of Enrique Peña Nieto, who at the end of his days as President of this brotherly country, receives orders to continue its campaign of unilateral, arbitrary and illegal actions against the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, reaching an unacceptable level of pressure on Mexican companies so that they endorse with this absurd procedure the hoax of the so-called humanitarian crisis to continue the record of infamies against our democracy and our homeland.

The presence of a senior official of the Mexican Foreign Ministry in a minor and closed procedure, without any criminal involvement, for the sole purpose of associating the name of Venezuela with crimes allegedly committed in Mexico, demonstrates the degree of ignominy of some governments. in his obsessive anti-Venezuelan campaign.

Venezuela repudiates any action that directly or indirectly seeks to justify the increase of unilateral and coercive measures against our economy and chaos in our country, by denying the Venezuelan population access to food, medicines and medicines. to basic necessities. The Bolivarian government of Venezuela, avoiding the brutal actions of the economic war, the financial blockade and the direct aggression of the imperial power centers, manages to satisfy the needs of our population and maintains its social programs directly to the vast majority of the population, although unilateral actions against Venezuela generate delays and increase the cost of financial operations, generating additional costs for our Republic only as intermediation.

Just as Venezuela has made progress in the recovery and stabilization of its economy, no propaganda or diplomatic aggression will stop Venezuelan social solidarity programs for the benefit of the Venezuelan people, victims of the state-led economic blockade.
