“A comrade informs me from Brazil that the “escualidos” are taking the Venezuelan embassy in Brasilia. Support is requested from social movements. Tense moments there. Diplomatic staff still at the embassy and they are defending it,” wrote on twitter the user @jlucena11.

For its part, the Brazilian website Desacato published this: “there are almost a hundred people who want to invade the Venezuelan embassy because they want to confront the legitimacy of the Venezuelan authorities. There is another group in a process of resistance to prevent them from taking Venezuelan territory.”

One of the activities was led by the Diplomatic Corps in Plaza Bolívar de Brasilia, in front of the Embassy. Later, these violent groups would have arrived, trying to sabotage the activity and take over the diplomatic facilities.
