In this regard, he has detailed that the anti-Chavista bloc, led by opposition leader Juan Guaidó, is accused of criminal acts such as the attempted appropriation of Venezuela's gold deposited in the Bank of England, the appointment of alleged ambassadors, among others.

In fact, the Venezuelan official has made it clear that the Government of Nicolás Maduro is acting, so "there is no impunity", to detail the judicial measures underway that include 59 arrest warrants, 258 blockades and freezing of accounts, 21 raids and 15 seizures.

In addition, he has highlighted that the fake interim government has committed “terrorist acts” and "corruption", citing "the illegal appointment of an ad hoc Administrative Board of Citgo, corruption with humanitarian aid, the illegal appointment of an ad hoc Administrative Board of Colombo-Venezuelan Monomeros" and many other allegations.
