The Revolutionary Government of the Republic of Cuba condemns and energetically rejects the attempt to impose a coup d\u2019etat, a puppet government at the service of the United States, in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, and expresses its unwavering solidarity with the government of Constitutional President Nicol\u00e1s Maduro Moros.<\/p>\n
The true objectives of actions against Venezuela are to control the vast resources of this sister nation and destroy the value of its example, as an emancipatory process defending the dignity and independence of Our America.
\nAs President Miguel D\u00edaz-Canel Berm\u00fadez said: \u201cThe sovereignty of our peoples is expressed today in one\u2019s attitude toward Venezuela. To support the legitimate right of the sister nation to define its own destiny is to defend the dignity of all.\u201d<\/p>\n
Other coup attempts should not be forgotten, such as the military coup of 2002 and the 2003 oil lockout; the aggressive U.S. Executive Order describing Venezuela as \u201can unusual and extraordinary threat to national security and foreign policy\u201d of the superpower; unilateral coercive measures; the call for a military coup against the constitutional government of Venezuela; the President of the United States\u2019 threat to use \u201ca possible military option\u201d and the August 4 assassination attempt against President Maduro.<\/p>\n
The acts of a group of countries and the shameful role of the OAS constitute a new, desperate attempt to implement an unsuccessful policy of regime change, which has not been imposed due to the unwavering resistance of the Venezuelan people and their determination to defend national sovereignty.<\/p>\n
