Through a statement this Saturday, the Bolivarian National Armed Forces (FANB) rejected the new sanctions “imposed by the infamous imperial brotherhood, today represented by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the Department of the Treasury of the United States of America. , together with the European Union and the United Kingdom; “On this occasion, attacking eleven officials of the Venezuelan State, including our Commander in Chief, the Minister of Popular Power for Defense and members of the Superior General Staff.”
In the Letter, the FANB points out that “this desperate action, outside of any norm of international law, has been carried out precisely on the day that citizen Nicolás Maduro Moros, Constitutional President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, was re-elected for the period 2025- 2031, takes oath and legitimate possession of his new mandate.
«Faced with the forceful democratic demonstration and exercise of sovereignty of the glorious Venezuelan people, their enemies fiercely attack them, trying as always to overshadow the relevance of this transcendent act of presidential investiture. This disgraceful measure seeks to disqualify the existing leadership in the military organization, which has remained unscathed during more than two decades of diffuse war against Venezuela; But these crude maneuvers, far from intimidating the men and women in uniform, strengthen their convictions of dignity, honor and self-determination, fueling in them the unwavering fight for the freedom, sovereignty and independence of their homeland.
Likewise, they point out that “this new onslaught of screams in the darkness of the imperial puppets is part of the neo-fascist and coup plans that the Venezuelan extreme right has been carrying out to alter the peace and stability of the country, attempting through extortion. and irrational sanctions, submitting and bowing to foreign interests.
«In the face of this, faithful to our popular, anti-colonialist, anti-oligarchic and anti-imperialist character, and in perfect popular-military-police fusion, we ratify the determination to obey the popular mandate expressed on July 28, 2024; while we reiterate unfailing support for the Bolivarian Revolution. “The most sincere solidarity goes to all public servants, and especially to those who today are victims of imperial arrogance. No sanction will violate the dignity of the sons and daughters of the United Liberation Army!” he stated.
