Gil pointed out that through “coercion and threat,” the U.S. seeks to impose a coup d’etat, disregard state institutions, implement new coercive measures, and destabilize the Venezuelan economy and the well-being of its people.

In response to the U.S.’s interference actions, the government of President Nicolas Maduro called for the unity and mobilization of all Venezuelans in defense of national sovereignty.

The Bolivarian authorities also denounced that Washington’s onslaught is supported by some sectors of the oligarchy and the far-right, which have been linked to previous calls for the imposition of international sanctions affecting the well-being of the Venezuelan people.
