Wednesday denounced that the <a

administration is seeking to "destroy" the negotiations
being carried out by <a

delegates and the Venezuelan right-wing opposition in
Barbados.</p>
<p>"Due to the resounding failure of all forms of
aggression against Venezuela, the Trump Administration
intends to destroy the political dialogue process
between the Government and the opposition, trying to
impose its warfare agenda. They will not be able to do
it. Peace will prevail!," Arreaza tweeted.</p>
<p>This statement was made after a State
Department spokesperson told EFE that the
U.S. government considers that the Barbados Dialogue
should prioritize the exit from power of President
Maduro, which Washington considers as a precondition for
the call for elections.</p>
<p>Venezuela's <a
href="https://www.telesurenglish.net/news/US-Siege-of-Venezuela-Embassy-Violates-Vienna-Convention-Moncada-20190515-0018.html"
target="_blank">Permanent Representative to the United
Nations Samuel Moncada</a> warned that the Trump
administration continues to plan military aggression
against the Bolivarian people.</p>
<p><strong>On July 9, six points were established in the
agenda of the dialogue held in Barbados between the
Bolivarian government and opposition representatives.
This was announced by Nicolas Maduro, who confirmed
his willingness to peace.</strong></p>
<p>"Trump prepares the use of force in Venezuela and
therefore openly violates international law by imposing
preconditions on dialogues between Venezuelans,
destabilizing society until it becomes ungovernable is
the technique it uses to expand its domination," Moncada
tweeted.</p>
<p>On July 8, delegates from the government and the
Venezuelan opposition arrived in Barbados to continue
with the peace dialogue which began in Norway on May 14,
a process whose main purpose is achieving a peaceful
solution to the political impasse in the South American
country.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, <a

target="_blank">Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno
Rodriguez</a> reaffirmed Tuesday his country's support
for negotiations that promote "absolutely sovereign
agreements" between representatives of President Maduro
and the Venezuelan political opposition.</p>
<p>"We support the Bolivarian government's ongoing
dialogue initiative, which is based on international law
principles," Rodriguez said, adding that should also be
aligned with the "Proclamation of Latin America and the
Caribbean as a Peace Zone", a multilateral agreement
signed by the heads of state who participated in the
2014 Summit of the Community of Latin American and
Caribbean States (Celac).</p>
<p>According to this proclamation, 33 countries committed
themselves permanently to seek "the pacifist solution of
controversies in order to banish forever the use and
threat of the use of force in our region."</p>
