The first vice president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello, questioned the statements issued by the mayor of Bogotá, Claudia López, who pointed to Venezuela as the country responsible for the violence in the Colombian capital.
“For a change, the lady blames Venezuela,” said the leader, referring to the news about the discovery of no less than twenty corpses in bags with signs of torture in an area of the Colombian capital.
The Colombian mayor mentioned the presence of criminal elements belonging to the so-called “Aragua train” as possible perpetrators of this massacre.
“If you have there, what is it called, the Aragua train, throw whatever you want at them, they do not hurt the Government of Venezuela because we have nothing to do with it,” he emphasized while reiterating his rejection. to the pretense of pointing to Venezuela as a promoter of violence in the territory of New Granada.
“What is sad is you saying that the violence in Colombia comes from Venezuela, that is shameful,” he lashed out, while highlighting the fight that the Venezuelan authorities are carrying out against Colombian violence and drug trafficking.
“They’re sorry! They believe that they are going to teach Venezuela lessons with some declarations. Here we do fight drug trafficking, we do fight violence and we have been victims of violence brought from Colombia or where does the hired killer come from? Where do the paramilitaries come from? Then the lady comes to blame Venezuela,” she said.
Cristina Fernandez case
Cabello also referred to the assassination attempt against the vice president of Argentina, Cristina Fernández, and charged the media in this country, which she accused of wanting to trivialize this fact.
“It’s disgusting,” he said and assured that the “Argentine media give a Dantesque and embarrassing scenario.”
“Some media questioned the attack and others dedicated themselves to explaining how a weapon should be used so as not to fail. They practically regretted that the thing failed”, he pointed out and compared this scenario of dismissal of the fact with what happened in Venezuela with the frustration-grade assassination carried out with drones against President Nicolás Maduro.
“We live it here with the frustrated assassination of President Nicolás Maduro. Everyone saw how the drones exploded there, those who did it confessed everything, said who sent them, where they were trained there in Colombia, but the media said it was a lie, because for the president to be credible he had to let himself be killed ” , he pointed.
