Oct 11, 2019.- The implementation of US sanctions against Venezuela mostly affects the common people, “they worsen the life of the Venezuelan population,” said the president of Datanalisis, Luis Vicente LeĂłn, this Friday in statements to UniĂłn Radio.
“Instead of helping, what they do (the sanctions) is to further amplify the problem that the population is experiencing (…) The application of sanctions does not solve the problem and makes the life of the Venezuelan population worse,” he added.
LeĂłn referred to recent restrictions such as limitations in the technological field and the cessation of Adobe’s service. “I can give a list of Venezuelans who have nothing to do with the government affected by these measures,” Leon said.
