In a decisive move to safeguard national sovereignty and public safety,
Venezuela’s Ministry of the Interior, Justice, and Peace has dismantled a
sophisticated far-right terrorist network. This group, with international
backing, aimed to destabilize the country through attacks on critical
infrastructure, diplomatic missions, and political leaders, both Chavista
and opposition. The operation underscores the persistent threats
orchestrated by extremist elements allied with foreign interests intent on
undermining Venezuela’s democratic process.

During a press conference, Minister Diosdado Cabello presented compelling
evidence linking the conspiracy to Colombian political figures María Corina
Machado, former presidents Álvaro Uribe and Iván Duque, and
narco-paramilitary gangs specializing in arms trafficking. The plot’s
sophistication was evident in its logistical reach, involving weapons
smuggled from Colombia, mercenaries from multiple countries, and advanced
communications equipment.

“This is a coherent plot; here, the Venezuelan right-wing politicians have
completely lost their shame, their scruples. They use drug money to buy
weapons, explosives, hitmen, bandits, and terrorists,” Cabello stated,
highlighting the collusion between right-wing politicians and criminal
networks.

Authorities have arrested 38 individuals, including 17 foreigners, many
with expertise in explosives and mercenary activities, as part of the
ongoing operation. Among those detained are Colombian, Argentine, and
Serbian nationals, as well as Venezuelan citizens involved in logistics and
propaganda. Security forces seized a cache of weapons,over 500 rifles,
grenade launchers, GPS systems, encrypted radios, and a .50-caliber machine
gun intended for high-impact attacks.

The investigation revealed that the group planned to target hospitals,
embassies, and public service facilities, with the aim of creating chaos
and justifying foreign intervention. Notably, the operation included
attempts to fabricate evidence of foreign missiles in Venezuela, intended
to provoke aggression from the United States.

Cabello and other government officials have repeatedly denounced the
imperialist agenda behind these plots, pointing to the involvement of the
U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Spain’s National Intelligence
Center, and regional right-wing leaders. These actors are accused of
financing, training, and directing mercenary operations against Venezuela’s
legitimate government.

*The text reads: #LIVE | “Uribe, Santos, Duque, and Pastrana, enemies of
#Venezuela, are the drug trafficking mafias,” stated the Venezuelan
minister.*

*#LIVE | “If there is a mega-gang, it’s the Colombian drug trafficking
gang, and here in #Venezuela, there is indeed a fight against drug
trafficking. We have them cornered, and we will continue to corner them,”
stated Diosdado Cabello.*

“They have hired mercenaries from Eastern Europe, Americans, looking to
attack Venezuela,” Cabello declared, demanding accountability from the U.S.
and Spanish governments for their alleged roles in these destabilization
efforts.

The Venezuelan government has reaffirmed its commitment to defending the
country’s peace, democracy, and sovereignty. President Nicolas Maduro and
high-ranking officials have called on the international community to
recognize the ongoing attacks by transnational far-right actors and to
support Venezuela’s right to self-determination.

Security protocols remain heightened, especially in border regions and
ahead of upcoming municipal elections, as authorities continue to dismantle
sleeper cells and prevent further attempts at destabilization.

“Fascism in Venezuela will not arrive nor prevail. They intend to govern
the country through delinquency and death. The oligarchy does not accept
the election results,” President Maduro emphasized, urging unity in the
face of foreign-backed aggression.

The exposure and dismantling of this terrorist network demonstrate the
vigilance of Venezuelan institutions and the resilience of the Bolivarian
Revolution against ongoing imperialist and far-right threats. The
government’s actions reaffirm its unwavering stance: Terrorism and foreign
intervention will find no foothold in Venezuela.
