GENEVA - Venezuela charged on Friday that U.S.-led sanctions had stopped foreign debt refinancing, blocked vital food and medicine imports, and cost billions of dollars in lost oil assets.
President Nicolas Maduro’s government says Venezuela is the victim of a U.S. plot to topple him, eradicate socialism and hand the world’s largest oil reserves to multinationals. “Venezuela can’t refinance its debt and oil tankers and businesses are being punished,” he added, saying oil export income had plummeted from $40 billion per year to $5 billion.
Bachelet’s report, which followed her visit to Caracas in June, said Venezuelan security forces were sending death squads to murder young men.“Beyond the certain occasional excess, it would seem that the state is expected to sit still while serious security risks and a coup d’etat are being planned including foreign intervention as President Trump has threatened,” he said.
