As always, these mainstream media in the framework of the hybrid war against Venezuela don’t miss opportunity to publish something that is embarrassing against the Bolivarian Republic, for example this case of non-payment, but they don’t t tell you why. Venezuela low oil production Why? There is no toilet paper. Why? They won’t publish it because their financiers would withdraw their funding just like that.
Venezuela has lost, but years ago, its vote in the UN due to the blockade that exists against Venezuela, Venezuela has blocked all its accounts abroad and cannot open new accounts to make payments such as the quota of the United Nations Organization, to pay medicines, treatments abroad for cancer, HIV, food, etc.
For example
As part of the global financial system aligned with Western elites, Euroclear participates in the financial blockade against Venezuela in response to the EE.UU. powers to accentuate the multifactorial war with blows to health and food of the Venezuela population.
Euroclear financial services provider keep 1,200 million dollars in accounts corresponding to Venezuela , money intended for medicines and food purchase to Venezuelan population. More info
Not having accounts abroad to pay for medicines
In 2015, the former President of U.S. Barack Obama signed a decree designating Venezuela an “unusual and extraordinary threat to the U.S. National Security.”
Few months into the presidency of Donald Trump, the sanctions and economic warfare against Venezuela intensified and their consequences increased.
“We find that the sanctions have inflicted, and increasingly inflict, very serious harm to human life and health, including an estimated more than 40,000 deaths from 2017–2018,” the CEPR study said.
That figure is based on an estimated 80,000 people with HIV who have not had antiretroviral treatment since 2017; 16,000 people who need dialysis; 16,000 people with cancer and 4 million with diabetes and hypertension, many of whom cannot obtain insulin or cardiovascular medicine.
The report also mentioned that “these sanctions would fit the definition of collective punishment of the civilian population as described in both the Geneva and Hague international conventions, to which the US is a signatory. They are also illegal under international law and treaties which the US has signed, and would appear to violate US law as well.” more info
They won’t tell you the reason for what is happening in Venezuela, they will tell you the bad things that are happening in the country.
