Venezuela solidarity movements in the United Kingdom expressed support for the Venezuelan migrants who are being branded as “terrorists” by US authorities and illegally imprisoned in maxim-security facilities.
The ambassador of Venezuela to the United Kingdom, Felix Plasencia, met with representatives of the solidarity movements with the aim of disseminating the truth about the Venezuelan migrants kidnapped in El Salvador and the solidarity movement for them currently occurring in Venezuela, as well as the efforts of the government of President Nicolás Maduro for the repatriation of migrants.
According to an article published by Fuser News, in this meeting held at Casa Miranda in London on Thursday, March 27, Ambassador Plasencia expressed that the attacks and illegal acts carried out by the US government against Venezuelan citizens constitute an unprecedented aggression, as the migrants are being stigmatized and treated as criminals, they are deprived of their freedom without due process, and are subsequently deported to El Salvador and imprisoned, actions that flagrantly violate their human rights.

Plasencia praised the solidarity event, stating that it provided an important opportunity for the Venezuelan state to meet with the social movements, and that the meeting “ended with ‘numerous signs of support’ against the aggressions faced by our citizens in the US.”
As part of the day of international mobilization in defense of the Bolivarian Revolution and Venezuelan citizens, social movements in Italy also joined the initiative to condemn the systematic human rights violations of Venezuelan migrants in the US.
