“We come from five years of a dramatic and tragic drought of the pro-imperialist and guaidosista National Assembly (referring to Venezuelan oppositionist Juan Guaidó)”, President Maduro said, recalling that they had passed one law in five years of management: “They didn’t care about the fundamental issues and the needs of the people,” he said .

Foreign Minister Plasencia describes latest HRW report on Venezuela as “pure mythomania”.
The Minister of People’s Power for Foreign Affairs, Félix Plasencia, described the latest Human Rights Watch (HRW) report on Venezuela as “pure mythomania”, stating that it is full of inaccuracies and does not mention the harmful effects of the Unilateral Coercive Measures imposed by the US government against the Bolivarian people.
“Mr. (José Miguel) Vivanco says goodbye to HRW doing what he does best: fabricating dossiers to please his financiers,” the Venezuelan foreign minister condemned on Thursday via his Twitter account @PlasenciaFelix.
Vivanco, a Chilean lawyer and executive director of HRW’s Americas Division, has maintained a systematic and irresponsible stance aligned with Washington’s interests in Venezuela’s internal affairs, which has been rejected by the Bolivarian government.
Less than two months ago, in the context of the regional and municipal elections of November 21st, 2021, Foreign Minister Plasencia criticised Vivanco’s “irresponsibility and audacity” for his intentions to destabilise the Venezuelan electoral process.

Venezuela denounces sabotage against oil installations
Venezuelan authorities denounced on Wednesday a new criminal sabotage against oil industry facilities, orchestrated by the opposition.
In a statement, the Alí Rodríguez Araque Presidential Commission said that it was the explosion caused on 11 January in the Poliducto de Oriente pipeline, from which all fuel is distributed to the eastern states of the country.
“This criminal action is part of the permanent war led by groups belonging to the Venezuelan extreme right who, under the protection of US imperialism, seek to attack and boycott the important advances that the Bolivarian government has achieved within the new production system,” the commission said.
Following the incident, teams from state-owned Petróleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) were deployed in order to carry out contingency protocols and guarantee the prompt restitution of fuel distribution.
