Us Declares Venezuelan President the Biggest Drug Trafficker; Reward Announced for Arrest
Venezuelan president is destroying American society by spreading cocaine and drugs, Trump
Washington: The US has accused Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro of being one of the world’s biggest drug traffickers.
According to the World News Agency, the US has announced a reward of $50 million for anyone who helps in the arrest of the Venezuelan president, based on this accusation.
The US Attorney General said that the reward for the arrest of the Venezuelan president was previously $25 million, which has now been doubled.
Nicolas Maduro is also accused of spreading cocaine in the US in collaboration with the Colombian rebel group FARC in order to destroy American society.
US Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed in a video statement that the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) seized 30 tons of cocaine, of which about 7 tons were linked to the Venezuelan president.
She added that the remaining 23 tons of cocaine also belonged to close associates of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro. Nicolas Maduro is also associated with the Venezuelan gang called Train de Aragua and Mexico’s Sinaloa Cartel.
It should be remembered that the US government has designated both of these organizations as terrorist organizations and imposed sanctions.
On the other hand, Venezuelan Foreign Minister Ivan Gul called the move ridiculous and political propaganda and said that we are not surprised by such tricks because Trump is doing all this to divert attention from sensitive issues like the Jeffrey Epstein case.
It should be remembered that Nicolas Maduro has been the president of Venezuela since 2013. They have been accused of election fraud, suppression of the opposition and political violence.
Similar allegations emerged in the recent elections, prompting the UK and the European Union to impose sanctions on the government of Nicolas Maduro.
In June, Hugo Carvajal, former intelligence chief of Nicolas Maduro, was also convicted on drug trafficking charges in the United States.
However, intelligence chief Bogo Carvajal later pleaded guilty, leading to speculation that he was seeking a reduced sentence in exchange for testifying against his president.
