Alwaght-The United States has relaunched its colonialist aspirations against Latin America, Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro has warned.
Speaking to HispanTV, the Venezuelan leader said US President Donald Trump "has allowed himself to be led to an extremist position of foolishness." Maduro added that the Venezuelan military was ready to defend the independence and sovereignty of the Latin American nation.
"America for Americans, that is, all our America for them, all our riches and all our power for them," Maduro said and added that Venezuela is currently at center of an imperialist attack "because they believe that, by reversing and destroying the Bolivarian Revolution, they will be able to recolonize and dominate the entire continent."
In Maduro's opinion, the US President Donald Trump "has allowed himself to be led to an extremist position of foolishness, to an unattractive position. In addition, he has hinted his true desire to dominate, conquer, and subdue Venezuela."
The Venezuelan leader also denounced that, besides being part of the US geopolitical aspirations in Latin America, Trump’s interventionist attitudes towards Venezuela are triggered by the desire to seize the country's enormous natural and mineral resources.
"Trump's problem is" Venezuela's riches, oil, gold, gas, strategic minerals, wealth, water," to which the great strength of the country is added when it comes to controlling its own model economic, political, social and cultural "added Maduro.
According to President Maduro, most of the polls show that more than 90 percent of Venezuelans reject any US military aggression. This is so because his nation is "united" around the rejection of Trump's statements.
On the delivery of the so-called humanitarian aid, which the US wants to deliver through the Colombian border, Maduro stressed that, first and foremost, it is a show aimed at camouflaging the U.S. provocation and aggression against Venezuela.
Nevertheless, President Maduro reiterated his belief in dialogue and diplomacy, despite the constant aggression by the Trump administration.
The oil-rich country is facing an economic crisis, including in the form of shortages of foodstuff and medicine. Caracas calls the crisis part of a US-led economic war. The US regime and some European powers back opposition leader Juan Guaido while Russia and China have vowed to back President Maduro.
