Havana, Dec 11 (Prensa Latina) Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel reaffirmed his support for the Venezuelan government’s statement denouncing the attack on one of its oil tankers.
“This constitutes an act of piracy, a violation of International Law and an escalation of aggression against that brother country,” the ruler stated on social media.
The Bolivarian nation denounced “the blatant theft and act of international piracy” that constitutes the assault and seizure of a Venezuelan oil tanker in the Caribbean Sea.
This new and extremely serious step in the escalation of aggression takes place after the announcement of the US National Security Strategy, which seeks to vindicate, 200 years later, the abominable Monroe doctrine.
The Bolivarian statement noted that once again “the true objective of the imperial offensive has been exposed: the obsessive desire to seize its natural resources,” and affirmed that it is “a demonstration of everything the empire is willing to do to impose its agenda and interests against our people.”
