Venezuelan Commune Member Declares Independence from Imperialism (Interview) – Orinoco Tribune<https://orinocotribune.com/venezuelan-commune-member-declares-independence-from-imperialism-interview/>
How has U.S. policy—including coercive measures and the seizure of Venezuelan funds—hindered rescue and relief efforts? ... A large amount of oil has been shipped to the United States and we have no control over the resources leaving the country. Yet we see that the U.S. president is offering only a small portion of that as “humanitarian aid.” We consider this disrespectful and abusive given that the U.S. continues to keep a great percentage of Venezuela’s own funds and resources from us. It is a difficult situation, and it directly limits what we can do inside Venezuela today. We have a huge need for resources to rebuild infrastructure and provide homes for people who have lost absolutely everything. So this mocking attitude, offering us crumbs out of our own stolen wealth, is especially painful. .... If there is one way people can truly help us, it would be to demand lifting of the sanctions and the blockade against Venezuela. That is the only way we could genuinely feel support from the US—anything else is not real help, just crumbs. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
