GENEVA – The Swiss government said on Jan 5 that it had decided to freeze any assets held in Switzerland by Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro or his associates “with immediate effect”.
Bern said it had reached its decision after Mr Maduro was seized in Caracas in a shock US military operation and brought to New York to face narcotrafficking charges.
Describing the situation as “volatile”, the Swiss government said in a statement that it wanted “to ensure that any illicitly acquired assets cannot be transferred out of Switzerland in the current situation”.
“The asset freeze comes into force today with immediate effect and will remain valid for four years until further notice.”
The same people who said Trump won 2020 are telling you Maduro lost to an unpopular far-right candidate supported most among Venezuelans by those who live in Miami, not Venezuela.

Another langley-poster.
Go manufacture consent for war somewhere else.
Linking the Carter Center as evidence that this is “consensus across the political spectrun” means you’re limiting said spectrum to the pro-imperialist western countries. Bolivia, Nicaragua, Cuba, Mexico, Brazil, all recognize Maduro. Edmundo Gonzalez is a far-right comprador that wishes to privatize Venezuela’s oil, and was backed by the US Empire, which the US tried to manipulate the election via sanctions (and the EU participated as well). Gonzalez is more popular among Venezuelans in Miami than in Venezuela itself.
Let’s stick with the facts: The US kidnapped a democratically elected president to colonize Venezuela and strip it for oil, and people who legitimize it by equating Maduro and Trump have blood on their hands.
“Neither Washington nor Caracas, but Washington”
