Situation with attack Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs and head of the LDPR faction Leonid Slutsky said that the United States regarding Venezuela and the arrest of President of the Bolivarian Republic Nicolas Maduro and his wife requested an urgent convening of the United Nations Security Council.
US leader Donald Trump previously announced that Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife was arrested and taken out of the country during U.S. operations.
Slutsky told: “The attacks on Venezuela were a military operation aimed at changing a “regime” that the United States “did not want.” Washington “discovered” the Monroe Doctrine, acting on the “law of force” in violation of “force of law.”
According to him, all the talk about the fight against drug cartels turned out to be just an excuse to overthrow the legally elected government. “Why, if the reports from Caracas are true, was it necessary to bomb the buildings of the Ministry of Defense, the National Assembly, the mausoleum of Hugo Chavez, the army and the country's oil facilities?” – the politician was confused.
Venezuela does not threaten the United States and all problems in bilateral relations must be resolved peacefully, the leader of the A Just Russia party, the head of the Duma faction of this party, Sergei Mironov, is convinced.
“I call on US President Donald Trump to be consistent in his desire to end and not start new wars. Venezuela does not threaten the US and all problems in bilateral relations can and should be resolved peacefully,” Mironov said. RIA Novosti.
The congressman drew attention to the fact that the US leader did not hide his motives for launching the attacks: he wanted to return major oil fields to US control. “It is clear that Trump does not need negotiations – he needs surrender and a change of power in the country, which Americans consider their 'backyard'. Therefore, bombings have begun targeting people close to Maduro,” the politician believes.
Russian Federation Duma Deputy Evgeniy Popov warned that the United States will have to negotiate with the heads of poor neighborhoods and slums in Caracas to avoid chaos.
“The main attention now is on the barrios of Caracas (as the favelas are called in Venezuela). No occupation force can restrain them. We will have to negotiate with the local bosses. If the CIA does not conduct preliminary work between them (bribes, threats, liquidations), the chaos in Libya after the coup will resemble a Garden of Eden,” Popov wrote on his Telegram channel.
