Venezuela’s Foreign Minister Felix Plasencia has accused his Uruguayan counterpart Mario Lubetkin of denying the right to self-determination and interfering in the internal affairs of the Bolivarian Republic.
elchi reports that Plasencia wrote on X: “In response to the statements made by the Uruguayan Foreign Minister, Venezuela rejects the outdated and arrogant views that do not respect the sovereignty and self-determination of peoples and have nothing to do with the transformation process that the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela is carrying out through political dialogue for democratic coexistence.” He accused the Uruguayan minister of interfering in Venezuela’s internal affairs.
The Uruguayan Foreign Minister stated that his country has no plans to restore diplomatic relations with Venezuela as long as Delsi Rodriguez, whose legitimacy Montevideo questions, remains in power.
