MOSCOW, March 20, 2020 (Sputnik) – Twitter blocked accounts of Venezuelan Vice-President Delcy Rodriguez, who heads the presidential commission on the fight against the spread of COVID-19, Venezuelan Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza has said.
“Vice-President Delcy Rodriguez leads the presidential commission against COVID-19. The inhuman and reckless gesture is that Twitter restricts @DrodriguezVen and @ViceVenezuela accounts, which are the sources of information necessary for the people of Venezuela in these unforeseen circumstances,” Arreaza said on Twitter.
