Venezuela Expels The US Envoy, Accused Of Acting As A Conspirator
Maduro made the announcement during the act in which he was proclaimed re-elected president, following Sunday’s widely questioned election results which Washington does not recognize.
The expulsion order also included the head of political affairs at the US Embassy, Brian Naranjo, who together with Robinson must exit Venezuela within 48 hours.
Enough with the conspiracies,” says the leftist president after making the announcement before a part of his executive staff, who accompanied him to the seat of the National Electoral Council (CNE) where he was to receive his credentials to remain in power until the year 2025.
The President accused Robinson of violating international law in the most shameless way, adding that he has the evidence to prove it and will later reveal all the facts of the conspiracy.
He says the Foreign Ministry had warned the diplomat more than ten times, in private, in public, in writing, verbally, but, he is adding, the American never stopped and kept behaving like an active conspirator.
Robinson has been less than a year in Caracas and is the highest US representative in Venezuela, given that both countries have not exchanged ambassadors for the eight years as a result of the conflicts in diplomatic relations since the so-called Bolivarian Revolution began in the South American nation in the year 1999.
The US, like many countries, did not accept Maduro’s victory in the recent election, which was boycotted by Venezuela’s main opposition coalition.
The Donald Trump administration on Monday imposed new economic sanctions on the Maduro government banning US citizens or companies from buying Venezuelan debt and the liquidation of Venezuelan assets in US territory.
In Maduro’s opinion, these sanctions offend the national dignity, do harm and cause suffering among the people.
