President Maduro denounces that the US imposes a colonial model with sanctions
The President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, denounced this Thursday that the United States government (USA) seeks to impose a colonial model, through the Office of Control of Foreign Assets (OFAC).
In statements broadcast by Venezolana de Televisión, the Venezuelan head of state described as “unacceptable” the constant sanctions issued by OFAC against Venezuela.
«A kind of world dictatorship is established. They (USA) are trying to establish a colonial model. Venezuela denounces the colonial model of OFAC, an unacceptable model, because if you produce something, and sell it to another company, what you expect is that they pay you,” stressed the National President.
In this sense, he recalled that the US has applied more than 900 sanctions against the country in the last nine years, and promotes an opinion matrix that the economic effects are the product of the management of the sanctioned governments, and of coercive measures.

Diosdado Cabello on Pompeo’s book: it is the story of a failure
As the story of a failure, the first vice president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), Diosdado Cabello, described the book published by the former Secretary of State of the United States, Mike Pompeo entitled “Never Give an Inch”.
During his program Con el Mazo Dando, he questioned the publication in which Pompeo dedicates a chapter to reveal the actions that were orchestrated against Venezuela from the White House during the administration of former President Donald Trump.
“There are self-help courses, right? I ask. Publishers normally publish the stories of people who succeed, but this bug printed a book to say that he failed with Venezuela, they printed it for him,” he said while referring to the confession made by the former Trump official regarding financing to the Venezuelan extreme right.
“A billion dollars says Pompeo that he was the boss, not all the time, of Juanito Alimaña (Juan Guaidó). 1000 million dollars, but Juanito Alimaña says that they only gave him 150 million and where did the rest go? Who got it?” he questioned.
