Venezuela’s condemnation follows the imposition of "unilateral coercive measures in the area of defense, which seek to affect that State’s ability to guarantee the security and stability of the nation".
In an official statement, "Venezuela ratifies today before the world its unrestricted solidarity support to the people and Government of Nicaragua, and reiterates its deep admiration for the commander President Daniel Ortega, and the vice president, Rosario Murillo".
According to the official statement made by Caracas, "this new expression of imperial arrogance manifests clearly and forcefully the continued contempt of the United States Government against international law and other fundamental principles of peaceful coexistence".
Venezuela’s condemnation follows the recent restriction on the export and import of United States defense goods to or from Nicaragua.
In addition to the sanctions, the United States assured that there will be updates to the International Arms Trafficking Regulations (IATR) regarding Nicaragua.
