St. Petersburg, FL— U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) today issued a statement after President Donald Trump signed a new executive order to impose sanctions against all U.S.-based assets of Nicolás Maduro’s illegitimate narco-terrorist regime, and also to authorize the U.S. Treasury Department to impose sanctions against any individual or entity who provides material support to the Maduro regime. Moreover, the Treasury Department issued a new guidance to clarify regulations and general licenses aimed at ensuring the unfettered flow of humanitarian aid to the Venezuelan people.
“Under the leadership of President Trump, the United States continues to stand with the people of Venezuela in their fight to restore democratic order and the rule of law,” Rubio said. “Yesterday’s executive order is yet another step to exert maximum pressure on the Maduro regime by restricting its access to the global financial system. America was the first country to recognize Interim President Juan Guaidó and we reiterate our unwavering support to the democratically elected National Assembly. Any country or individual doing business with the Maduro crime family will face sanctions as they are perpetuating the agony of the Venezuelan people.”
Rubio is Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.
RUBIO COMENTA SOBRE EL EMBARGO ECONÓMICO DE EE.UU. CONTRA EL RÉGIMEN NARCOTERRORISTA DE MADURO
St. Petersburg, FL— El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL) emitió el siguiente comunicado después que el presidente Donald Trump firmó una nueva orden ejecutiva imponiendo sanciones contra todos los activos en los Estados Unidos del régimen ilegítimo de Nicolás Maduro, y también donde autoriza al Departamento del Tesoro de los Estados Unidos a imponer sanciones contra individuos o entidades que apoyan al régimen de Maduro. Adicionalmente, el Departamento del Tesoro emitió una nueva guía para aclarar las regulaciones y las licencias generales destinadas a garantizar el flujo de la ayuda humanitaria al pueblo venezolano.
“Bajo el liderazgo del presidente Trump, los Estados Unidos continúa apoyando al pueblo de Venezuela en su lucha por restablecer el orden democrático y el estado de derecho en su país”, Rubio dijo. “La orden ejecutiva de ayer es otro paso a seguir para incrementar la presión sobre el régimen de Maduro y restringir su acceso al sistema financiero global. Estados Unidos fue el primer país en reconocer al presidente interino Juan Guaidó y reiteramos nuestro apoyo a la Asamblea Nacional electa democráticamente. Cualquier país o individuo que haga negocios con el régimen de Nicolás Maduro enfrentará sanciones pues perpetúan la agonía del pueblo venezolano”.
Rubio es el Presidente del Subcomité de Relaciones Exteriores para el Hemisferio Occidental, Delincuencia Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
