UN Security Council convenes for Venezuela - West stealing funds

BATTLE FOR WORLD / RT | July 2, 2019: The video highlights the gathering of the United Nations security council regarding Venezuela on April 10, as the West tries its best to bring about a coup inside the country.

In this excerpt Russia’s UN ambassador said funds were stolen from Venezuela. And Venezuela’s UN ambassador points fingers at America and Britain as the ones stealing funds from the country of Venezuela. However, Britain’s UN ambassador said that this was not the case:

2:08:47, Russia’s UN ambassador: I just wanted to say that the government of Venezuela was ready to buy vaccines but the money was stolen from it. As we said the money had been deposited in British and American banks so the situation is simple here. First you (i.e. the US and UK) create a problem then you suggest that it be solved. Just to clarify things…

2:09:06, UK’s UN ambassador: I don’t want to get into any tit-for-tat, but the money (i.e. from Venezuela) was not stolen from a British bank. It’s very important that we correct these falsehoods.

2:09:29, Venezuela’s UN ambassador: To begin, I think its incumbent upon us to respond to the broad range of lies and false information we heard from the mouth of the Vice President of the United States, here…

2:33:15, Venezuela’s UN ambassador: First and foremost on the Bank of England – we will circulate to all the members of the United Nations and to the public at large the truth on this situation that the Bank of England is not independent. And letters of correspondence confirm that. Letters sent to our representative in which they say black and white that they are following sanctions applied by the government of the United States. This proves that the Bank of England is not independent.

Also proof of its lack of independence is its willingness to communicate with opponents of the government of Venezuela imposed by the United States and engages with communication with representatives. The Bank of England has no prestige,…what it is doing with us, it also did with Libya in the past.

The Bank of England simply ceases any opportunity available to it when a country is weak and it swings in the wind. The most recent example is that the government of the United Kingdom states that their traditional policies is to recognize states and not governments and that this will not change. In the case of Venezuela they did change that policy. And now they say that they don’t us [the country of Venezuela the] state. They recognize a puppet government which don’t even control a single street in Venezuela. The Bank of England swung into line behind this policy.

And the president of the central bank of Venezuela whom they have dealt with for years, they now say don’t recognize him because the government of the United Kingdom has changed their opinion. This is not an independent bank (i.e. the Bank of England). We need to thread carefully if you (referring to UK’s ambassador to the UN) believe that is the case [i.e. the bank being independent], because you are threading on dangerous waters.

In response to the [UN] ambassador of Peru, I think it’s worth recalling to him that the United Nations is not the book club of the United States of the Peru…
