“The whole world should know that there is no legal security in London or in the Bank of England, that at any moment, any country or Central Bank in the world can have its international reserves, its gold reserves stolen, that is the truth. There is no legal security, there is no respect for the law”.
The complaint was made by the Venezuelan head of state and government, Nicolás Maduro, who described as “piracy and theft” the decision of the UK Supreme Court to prevent Venezuela’s access to its gold reserves deposited in the European country.
“The gold that is in the vault of the Bank of England belongs to the Central Bank of Venezuela, and belonging to the Central Bank of Venezuela belongs to all Venezuelans. We will continue to put up a fight”, he assured.
Deputies speak out against the theft of Venezuelan gold
In part of his speech of the Plenary Session of the National Assembly (AN) this Tuesday, Deputy Jesús Faría communicated to the country the strong rejection of the theft of 31 tons of Venezuelan gold deposited in the Bank of England (BoE), whose value is estimated at one billion dollars.
The parliamentarian stressed that the gold, belonging to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, has been held by that bank for three years as part of the economic blockade and the unilateral imperialist coercive measures applied to the country and promoted by a false interim government supported by the United States.
Faría explained that this gold would represent a great relief for Venezuela, because it would be used to pay the salaries and other social benefits of the people. He repudiated the actions of the decadent monarchy, which is sequestering the country’s resources, and described the argument put forward by the powers of that neo-colonial nation to withhold the rights and patrimony of Venezuelans as ridiculous.

President Maduro: US intends to illegally seize Venezuelan plane
The President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, denounced that the “plane that fulfilled a fundamental function in the humanitarian life in Venezuela is hijacked in Argentina and they intend to steal it from us by an order of an imperial court in the state of Florida”.
“Venezuela raises its voice in protest and asks for the solidarity of the honest people of Argentina, but we, I tell you, with indignation I protest, with indignation I defend the interests of our beloved Venezuela, but I do not lose our objective, we do not lose it, to grow, to grow, with our own effort and work. We are achieving it and Venezuela is achieving a record of real economic growth in the first half of the year and the projection for the year 2022”, he said at a working day to show the progress of the Entrepreneurial Engine.
Since the end of June, the Venezuelan government, which manages the state-owned company Emtrasur, which operates the Boeing 747 seized at Ezeiza, has asked judge Federico Villena, through a lawyer for the crew, to return the aircraft.
