Lawmaker
Diosdado Cabello presented evidence of a coup attempt planned by the
opposition with terrorist acts and looting.
Venezuelan
socialist lawmaker and former head of the National Assembly, Diosdado
Cabello, said Wednesday that the country's right-wing opposition has
been harboring a coup plot and attempting to foment violence to
justify foreign military intervention amid a tense political standoff
between the government of President Nicolas Maduro and its opponents.
During his
program "Con el Mazo Dando" broadcast on state television,
Cabello presented audio recording that provided evidence of a
coordinated opposition destabilization plan that included violence in
the streets and military attacks in Caracas, with the aim of creating
a political scenario that would favor military intervention by the
United States and the ultimate removal of the Maduro government.
"They
implore the intervention of foreign military forces ... those
opposition supporters who don't have the balls to carry out a coup as
they want, those opposition supporters who don't have the courage to
stand as it should be and they send someone else to shed blood for
them and after skate over the blood of others and celebrate that they
toppled Maduro," said Cabello, vice president of Maduro's
United Socialist Party of Venezuela or PSUV.
