Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro has called Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar a “warmonger”, accusing her of provoking protests and marches across Venezuela in recent days. He claims this unrest stems from Trinidad and Tobago’s support for US military actions in the Caribbean.
“Venezuela is overflowing … with the patriotic marches that began throughout the eastern part of the country because they organised themselves in Monagas, Delta Amacuro, Anzoátegui, Sucre and Nueva Esparta. They organised themselves on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday against the threat of military exercises called by the irresponsible and warmongering prime minister, who is determined to destroy the historical bonds of brotherhood, cooperation and peace between T&T and Venezuela,” he said.
He made these comments on Monday night on his weekly programme “Con Maduro”.
