According to the communication minister of the South American country, Jorge Rodríguez, the self-proclaimed president in charge, Juan Guaidó, and other leaders of the right embezzeled capital to finance acts of destabilization from Colombia and other nations in the region.
n a press conference on Monday, the executive presented the conversations of Guaidó with Rosana Barrero and Kevin Rojas, both militants of the Voluntad Popular (VP) party, who handled the stolen resources to cover the entry of assassins with the objective of supporting terrorist acts in the South American country.
Rodriguez also noted that 800 million dollars belonging to the company Citgo, a subsidiary of the state-owned Petrolera Venezolana (Pdvsa), in the United States, were moved to accounts of trustworthy persons of the self-proclaimed president.
'The opposition has no political interest in Venezuela, so the situation of division that exists between the parties of VP and Primero Justicia; the gigantic plot of corruption promoted by the local far right is evident, "he said.
Later, the minister advanced a probable investigation by the US Department of Justice ad hoc to the board of directors appointed by Guaidó to the Citgo Company.
The investigations, which according to Rodriguez will be known in the next few hours, link the opposition leaders in exile with the alteration of the accounting to exceed 70 million dollars in the payment of interests of a supposed bonus.
"Apparently the person directly involved in taking the money is Carlos Vecchio, also a militant of VP," he said.
Vecchio is the national political coordinator of the Voluntad Popular party and since January of this year he was appointed by Guaidó as Venezuela's Chargé d'Affaires in the United States with support from the White House.
