Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro requested this Wednesday in New York for the United States Government to “rectify the erratic policies of bullying” his country, and asserted he would denounce us foreign policy to the General Assembly of the UN to “bring the whole truth “about Venezuela.
“Our revolution has not fallen or will fall,” Maduro said in a meeting with the communities of the Bronx taken place at Hostos Community College.
The president of the South American country has said that although he doubted about his participation in the General Assembly, he decided to do so after reading this Sunday two critical stories about his policy in two of the most important newspapers in the United States, ‘The Washington Post’ and The New York Times.
“What a coincidence,” he exclaimed, and argued. “They wanted to keep my trip to the organization of the United Nations Then on Sunday, I was still thinking if I would come or not come (…) At the moment when I read the two editorials, thanks to ‘Washington Post’ and ‘New York times’ decided.’ Cause now I’ll have to carry the whole truth of our country “, he underlined.
Maduro has ensured that these texts showed how elites from the United States “look over the shoulder”.
“We are not better or intend to be, but we can not accept that we despise,” he continued.
“We know that the attack on Venezuela is to try to prevent such a deeply popular democratic revolution, with a deep American identity with the flag of Bolívar and the spirit of Hugo Chavez the giant who continues riding in the XXI century to consolidate Venezuela, “he said.
He added wryly, as if they were “securities of a Hollywood movie,” Venezuela is “a revolution beset by fatal obsession of those who want to own the world.”
Accusations of political prisoners
Maduro has responded to accusations of political prisoners, saying that “where there is enough political prisoners in the United States, starting with (the Puerto Rican Nationalist) Oscar Lopez Rivera, the oldest political prisoner in humanity, the Mandela of Latin America and the Caribbean. ”
“President Barack Obama, has two years as president. Lance In the two years remaining messages for the time and they do transcend any positive memories from the people. Freedom Give Oscar and the three Cubans who are struggling against terrorism, “the Venezuelan leader asked.
“Please be good and have kindness. Ask God to place a halo of light in your mind and in your heart to be inspired,” he urged the American president.
Criticism USA environmental policy
Maduro, who took part today in the Climate Summit at the UN, has been highly critical of the environmental policies of the great powers.
“Now they want to call green economy at the same monster that has destroyed rivers, seas, has been polluted and plundered the wealth and has exploited our people for over a hundred years of capitalism in the world,” he detailed.
“All I have are green dollars that want to get bankers negotiating the destruction of the planet. But to change the climate must change the system,” he assured.
And to prove that another business way possible, Maduro gave as an example Citgo, the oil company whose main shareholder is Texas Petroleos de Venezuela Oil company.
“Our plans to strengthen Citgo is increasingly making the necessary investment to strengthen that Venezuela alliances in the United States,” said, and asserted that this company come “to more than 150,000 families in 25 states of the Union “which, according to the leader,” is not garlic shell. ”
Mature, thereby wished to express that he has nothing against the United States. “The only people there are anti’s own elites of the United States, which has sent to war to die for their young throughout the twentieth century,” he argued.
