He added that these actions by the US government have been defeated by the Venezuelan people “in a demonstration of their strong will to advance in peace and achieve the prosperity they deserve.”

Foreign Minister Gil warned that hate speech is being spread by the United States and terrorism is being promoted in its various forms, including attacks, assassination attempts, and aggression against the peoples of the world.
In this regard, he mentioned the website “ Ya Casi Venezuela,” through which far-right groups based in the United States are collecting funds to finance a mercenary operation against Venezuela with the assistance of mercenary boss Erik Prince.
