Venezuela denounces coup plan announced by U.S. Secretary of State

‘We Bolivarians make cosmic dust of the Monroe Doctrine. That is our victory, Mr. Blinken,” Foreign Minister Yvan Gil said.

Sept. 9 – On Sunday, Venezuelan Foreign Affairs Minister Yvan Gil said that U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken is seeking to publicize a coup d’état in the South American country through social media.

“Their plans were dismantled through voting and civic-military-police unity and mobilization,” the Bolivarian diplomat said, asking the U.S. government to accept the results of the July 28 presidential elections issued by the National Electoral Council and ratified by the Supreme Court of Justice.

In that democratic process, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was re-elected for the 2025-2031 period, defeating far-right politician Edmundo Gonzalez, who is currently in Spain after the Bolivarian government granted him a safe-conduct to leave the country.

“We Bolivarians make cosmic dust of the Monroe Doctrine. That is our victory, Mr. Blinken,” the Foreign Affairs Minister said in response to a post by Blinken on the social network X in which the Secretary of State encourages a coup in Venezuela with the justification that citizens voted for a change.

In his message, Blinken claims without evidence that the Government of Venezuela “has killed or imprisoned thousands of people.” Foreign Minister Yvan Gil said that the statements of the U.S. high official are part of a new U.S. strategy and emphasized to Blinken that his objectives failed.
