Caracas, September 13, 2024 – The Government of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela expressed its gratitude to the President of Cuba, Miguel Diaz-Canel, as well as the President of Nicaragua, Daniel Ortega, and the Vice President of that country, Rosario Murillo, who, through a statement, rejected the new unilateral coercive measures imposed by the United States against the Venezuelan nation.

The information was shared by the People’s Power Minister for Foreign Affairs, Yván Gil, via his social media channels, where he stated: “On behalf of the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, we express our deep gratitude to the President of Cuba, Miguel Díaz-Canel, for his firm rejection of the new unilateral coercive measures imposed by the United States against Venezuela, as well as for his call for the elimination of these illegal sanctions.”
