Venezuelan official Diosdado Cabello has accused the United States and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) of violating international agreements by spying on Venezuelan officials. Cabello made this statement in response to reports of the US and the DEA conducting espionage activities on Venezuelan government members.
Cabello stated, “The US and the DEA know that they are violating international agreements by spying on Venezuelan officials.” He also expressed his discontent with the US government’s actions, calling it a violation of Venezuela’s sovereignty.
This accusation comes as tensions between the US and Venezuela continue to rise, with the two countries having a strained relationship for several years. The US has imposed sanctions on Venezuela and its officials, citing human rights abuses and corruption within the Venezuelan government.
Additionally, Cabello mentioned the shadow of the Essequibo, a disputed territory between Venezuela and Guyana, which has long been a point of contention between the two countries. The situation has further complicated relations between Venezuela and the US.
The Venezuelan government has consistently accused the US of attempting to interfere in its internal affairs and overthrow the Maduro administration. Cabello’s recent statement adds to the growing list of grievances that the Venezuelan government has with the US.
As the situation continues to escalate, it remains to be seen how the US and Venezuela will address these accusations and work towards a resolution. Stay tuned for any further developments on this story.
