ICOR America,

In the early hours of Saturday, January 3, the people of Venezuela were victims of a fierce terrorist attack perpetrated by Donald Trump's fascist government.

The city of Caracas, other states, and regions awoke to the sound of planes and helicopters bombing the area, terrorizing an entire people who refuse to surrender their sovereignty and natural resources to those who have always considered America to belong to them.

In this criminal action, the constitutional president of the Bolivarian Republic, Nicolás Maduro Moros, and his wife, Cilia Flores, have been kidnapped.

In response to this state crime, Venezuelans are lying in the streets in an expression of support for the government of Nicolás Maduro and demanding the immediate release of him and his wife, as well as the withdrawal of the invading troops.

The Venezuelan Armed Forces and all its security agencies, in addition to reiterating their loyalty to President Nicolás Maduro and the Bolivarian Revolution, maintain control of the situation and call on the population not to lose their composure, refraining from any action that could serve as a pretext for the intervening forces to commit any further acts of madness.

The International Coordination of Revolutionary Organizations and Parties (ICOR) stands in full solidarity with the Venezuelan nation and strongly condemns the military intervention in its territory by US imperialism.

We defend the self-determination of peoples as a matter of principle and right, and in this sense, we demand the immediate withdrawal of the intervening forces from Venezuelan soil.

Similarly, we reject the attitude of international organizations that have so far failed to speak out on this issue. We believe that given the magnitude of this terrorist act, immediate condemnation is warranted.

We urge all revolutionary organizations in the Americas and around the world to speak out in solidarity with the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. This crime not only affects the Venezuelan nation; it also jeopardizes the security of other countries that oppose Yankee domination in the region, such as Cuba, Colombia, Nicaragua, and others.

Yankee presence out of Venezuela and the Caribbean!

Long live the self-determination of the peoples!

Long live the Bolivarian Revolution!
