Venezuela is facing the greatest threat in South America in a century, but will not bow, said President Nicolás Maduro on Monday in a rare press conference.
Tensions between the United States and Venezuela have increased in recent weeks in the middle of an important US naval reinforcement in the southern Caribbean and nearby waters, which, according to the US authorities, aims to face the threats of the Latin American drug signs.
The President of the United States Donald Trump has made the repression of drug signs a central goal of his government, part of a wider effort to limit migration and protect the border with the southern United States.
However, Maduro, the interior minister of Venezuela, Diosdado Cabello and other authorities have said that the United States are threatening their country with naval force and that the action is part of an effort to justify an intervention against them.
“Venezuela is facing the greatest threat that has been seen in our continent in the last 100 years,” Maduro said to journalists, authorities and military in uniform in Caracas. “You have never seen such a situation.”
His country is peaceful, added Maduro, but will not bow to threats.
The Venezuela government has moved the US declarations according to which the country and its leadership are fundamental for the great international drug trafficking.
In August, the United States doubled their reward for the information that led to the arrest of Maduro at $ 50 million due to drug trafficking accusations and calls from the criminal group.
