USA behind the electric attack
The Venezuelan official denounced the participation of the US senator for the state of Florida, Marco Rubio, in the electric attack through a cyber-sabotage.

He explained that the aggression occurred in the computer control of the Guri system that supplies most of the country’s energy. This information was handled by US Senator Marco Rubio shortly after the sabotage was executed and so he let it be seen in his Twitter account.
“How did Marco Rubio know that the backup generators had failed?” At that time, nobody knew yet,” he asked.
He also rejected statements by the US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, who said that the next to fall would be the constitutional president of Venezuela, NicolΓ‘s Maduro.
