VENEZUELA REPORT / Especial / May, 2018 /
SANCtions and blockade: AGGRESSION TO THE BOLIVARIAN REPUBLIC OF VENEZUELA The following report drafted by the People’s Power Ministry for Foreign Relations of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, includes arguments and facts that demonstrate the existence – since 2014 – of a hostile and aggressive policy undertaken by the United States of North America (USA) towards Venezuela. This policy is expressed with particular intensity in the adoption of unilateral and coercive measures (sanctions) aiming at affecting the economic and political stability of the Venezuelan democracy, within a framework that intends the overthrowing of the constitutional government, taking the control of economic resources and Venezuela’s sovereignty, and it is part of the recolonization strategy of Latin America and the Caribbean carried forward by Trump’s administration, through the reimposition of the Monroe Doctrine in the continent.
