Ministry of Popular Power for Foreign Affairs published through its Twitter account the blocking of financial accounts outside Venezuela to buy sensitive medicines for the treatment of diseases has led to delays and withholding imports of this type of supplies.
In Venezuelan Foreign Ministry account, says: “The blocking of accounts used by the Republic for its commercial activities, under the narrative that they are now under administration of Guaidó, generates delays and withholdings when importing sensitive medicines for Venezuelan patients. “.
Likewise, the entity expresses the Department of the Treasury of the United States (USA) blocks operations of Central Bank of Venezuela (BCV) to avoid the allocation of funds for purchase of medicines and food necessary for the social protection of the population.

The financial blockade directly affects routine international payments for goods and services.
No doubt remains that the blockade of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela is intended to deepen the sabotage of the Venezuelan people’s social and economic life.
The blockade is applied so as to affect Venezuela’s population directly, but the government has acted to neutralize or at least mitigate the effects of the “Trump-Borges pact,” a new way of describing the U.S. intervention and coup.
