BREAKING: Venezuelan Military Denounces Abduction Of President Maduro, Calls For His Immediate Release [PHOTO]
Venezuela’s armed forces have condemned what they described as the “abduction” of President Nicolás Maduro by the United States, demanding his immediate release and urging the international community to defend the country’s sovereignty.
In a televised address by the Defence Minister Vladimir Padrino López, flanked by top military officers, he declared that “Nicolás Maduro is the genuine, authentic constitutional leader of all Venezuelans.”
López said the leadership of the Bolivarian Forces of Liberation was united in demanding Maduro’s release, accusing Washington of pursuing a “colonialist ambition” against the South American nation.
“We urge the world to turn their eyes to what is happening against Venezuela, against its sovereignty,” he said. “The world needs to be on guard because if it was Venezuela yesterday, it could be anywhere tomorrow.”
Recall that Maduro was captured by the United States Special Forces in what President Donald Trump described as a “large-scale strike” on Saturday.
