Maduro called for those who insist on creating a diatribe on the subject to get out of the debate on “whether Venezuela was settled or not”; Consequently, he invited everyone to see and appreciate that the important thing is that there are signs of economic recovery in the country.
The Venezuelan ruler Nicholas Madurohighlighted this Tuesday through a Facebook Live broadcast, the increase in the country’s tax collection due to foreign exchange transactions.
Situation that according to the president, who was in the company of the executive vice president Delcy Rodríguez, is forcing Venezuelans to “use the bolivar more and more as currency.”
“It is a tax that has had a very positive impact on the economy (Tax on Foreign Exchange Transactions) and, without a doubt, the Venezuelan people understand and understand that there is no prohibition, but that different currencies coexist,” he said.
Said statements by Maduro come shortly after a study carried out by EcoAnalítica, in an article published by the Bloomberg agency, where it is stated that foreign exchange transactions “have fallen almost ten percentage points, after reaching a maximum during the first quarter of last year. ”.
“The bolívar has been strengthening with strength, power and real monetary strength, the strength of the market, the strength of economic activity, the strength of a solid activity that produces organic bolívar. Venezuela is recovering,” he said. “The world of the future will be a basket of currencies and cryptocurrencies.”
