The head of Venezuela’s foreign relations portfolio, Yván Gil, pointed out through publications on his digital profiles that, “Bolivarian Venezuela does not accept lessons or pressure from anyone,” in response to the United States Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken.
“Mr. Blinken, promoter and defender of fascism in Venezuela, your words are not surprising, coming from an official of an outgoing and deeply failed government that will go down in history as one of the most inept and damaging in the foreign policy of the United States,” Gil stated.
Secretary Blinken published a text that reads as “Secretary Blinken’s call to Venezuelans, to President-elect González Urrutia and opposition leader Machado,” to which Foreign Minister Gil recalled that, “his desperation leads him to support the worst opposition that Venezuela has known in the last 25 years, a disconnected, terrorist opposition, without leadership and without popular support, which has been complicit in every defeat suffered by its country.”
Along these same lines, he mentioned that for four years they have failed again and again in their plans against Venezuela, “and this time it will not be different. Our people and government continue to stand, with dignity, guaranteeing prosperity and defeating the adversities that you yourselves have tried to impose, advancing in the construction of a sovereign and independent country.”
“Know well that Bolivarian Venezuela does not accept lessons or pressure from anyone, least of all from those who have achieved nothing but failure. “Bye bye Blinken!” wrote Gil.
