The French communists energetically rejected the US military maneuvers off the coasts of Venezuela as well as the support by France and the European Union to the so-called political transition Washington seeks to impose on Caracas.
We reiterate our total solidarity with the Venezuelan people and the democratic and peace forces of that country, they stressed.
According to the PCF, it is particularly condemned that the new crusade is framed at a time when the world is plagued by the novel SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus and the governments dedicate their efforts to fight it.
During a press briefing, on April 1, US President Donald Trump was unable to respond to the social, economic and health concerns of US citizens, and opted to enroll in a new anti-Venezuelan offensive, they denounced.
This maneuver came a few days after Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced a democratic transition plan for Venezuela, whose objective is none other than to dismantle the institutions of the South American nation, the communists said in their statement.
