President Nicolás Maduro assured that it is not his responsibility to give any explanation or statement regarding the version given by the president of Brazil, Lula Da Silva, or his doctors, regarding his absence during the Brics summit held last week. spent in Russia.
“In the world of rumors, everything comes and goes,” commented Maduro after being asked his opinion regarding the thesis presented by the Attorney General of the Republic, Tarek William Saab, regarding Lula’s absence in the Brics.
“I saw the statement of the Attorney General, which I found out when I arrived in Maiquetía,” he said. “The prosecutor (Saab) is a man of justice, with a lot of national credibility. He is the most credible official and the most credible institution in Venezuela, with more than 70% for his actions against corruption and against permanent conspiracy. He is a man of one piece, brave. Then I saw how that affected Brazil. In any case, I am not speaking out on this issue, but rather the doctors and President Lula himself speaking on the subject. “It’s not up to me,” he said.
Last Saturday, October 26, Saab posted on his social networks that President Lula da Silva manipulated an alleged accident to use it as an alibi in order not to attend the recent BRICS Summit and evade his responsibilities towards Presidents Putin and Maduro. .
“Direct and close sources from Brazil inform me that President Lula da Silva manipulated an alleged accident to use it as an alibi in order not to attend the recent BRICS Summit, and that this version was nothing more than a deception for perpetrate the veto against Venezuela, evading his responsibility before President Putin, the other attending leaders and in particular, President Nicolás Maduro Moros. What spread very strongly as a rumor, unfortunately seems to be corroborated with a video released yesterday, where President Lula is seen healthy, in use of his faculties and acting with total cynicism. Meanwhile, there is great discomfort in the Latin American left and the revolutionary movements of the world due to the unworthy and disastrous performance of its government in said Summit by vetoing and cowardly attacking Venezuela, obediently following the instructions of the historical enemies of our people. Lula reappeared smiling and unharmed, making it clear that he used said “accident” to lie to Brazil, the BRICS and the entire world, a fact for which he should be investigated,” reads Saab’s message posted on his social network Instagram on last October 26th.
It should be noted that Saab, during an interview given to a television channel, would have pointed out the president of Brazil, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, and that of Chile, Gabriel Boric, as the “two spokespersons” of the Latin American left “captured” by the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) of the United States. These statements were rejected by the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry, which is why Saab also stated on his social networks that it was a personal opinion and that they did not respond to an official position of the National Executive.
