The Vice Minister of Anti-Blockade Policies of Venezuela, William Castillo, denounced that the opposition pre-candidate Henrique Capriles is the new “interim shadow president” that the economic powers of Washington and London need to justify the dispossession of the nation’s resources.
In his account on the social network Twitter, Castillo pointed out that the United States and the United Kingdom need a “deteriorated parapet” that they can consider a “legitimate government” to maintain control of Venezuela’s assets abroad.
In this sense, he said that it is not about Dinora Figuera, the illegitimate representative of the extinct National Assembly, but about the support behind Capriles Radonski, who will be the candidate supported by the so-called G4.
William Castillo added that the G4 needs to maintain the fiction that there is an “interim government” to try to liquidate CITGO and keep the gold held in London.
Where do the real ones go?
Castillo’s statements are added to those issued by the president of the National Assembly, Jorge Rodríguez, who ironized the appointment of Figuera as interim president, saying that it had been done at a McDonald’s in Florida.
The parliamentarian said that this large amount received by Figuera, who belongs to the Primero Justicia party, will be used to finance the campaign of Henrique Capriles Radonski as a presidential candidate in the so-called opposition primary elections.
None of the opposition candidates has questioned the dispossession of Venezuela’s assets by the United States and the United Kingdom, with the complicity of a minority group of the national extreme right.
The statements by Rodríguez and Castillo make it clear that this lack of questioning leaves open doubts about the fate of Venezuelan resources abroad and whether they will form part of the financing funds for the right-wing electoral campaign.
