Free­lance Cor­re­spon­dent

Venezue­lan Vice Pres­i­dent Del­cy Ro­dríguez has at­tacked Min­is­ter in the Min­istry of Hous­ing Phillip Alexan­der, call­ing him a pawn of the Unit­ed States af­ter con­tro­ver­sial state­ments he made about Venezuela.

“The on­ly nu­clear bomb was the one dropped in­to the brain of this of­fi­cial from this new­ly sworn-in Gov­ern­ment. Trinidad and To­ba­go should think of its peo­ple be­fore they try to at­tack Venezuela and re­nounce their servi­tude to the US. Gov­ern­ment that in­tends to steal our im­mense en­er­gy re­sources. They could not and will not with our de­ter­mi­na­tion to free­dom and self-de­ter­mi­na­tion, wide­ly ex­er­cised in our diplo­ma­cy of peace. Venezuela is hope,” she said.
