THE LARGEST AWARD IN AMERICAN HISTORY

Let me explain: The brochure is in front of me. It's a $50 million reward for a specially designated global terrorist. It states that a $50 million reward will be offered for information leading to the arrest or conviction of Nicolás Maduro Moros, leader of the Cartel de los Soles. With this designation, the US will be able to"legally" strike Venezuela. The US Joint Chiefs of Staff also traveled to the region.

This award is the highest in American history. No other person has ever received such a bounty.

US PRESS: OPERATION WILL START VERY SOON

Meanwhile, the American Fox News channel announced that the operation against Venezuela would begin very soon. The White House also declared that Maduro was illegitimate.

Venezuela has described the US designation of the"Cartel de los Soles" (Cartel of the Suns) as a terrorist organization as an attempt to create a pretext for intervention in the country.

In a statement published on the website of the Venezuelan Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it was stated that the Caracas administration denied the existence of the organization called"Cartel de los Soles" and that "this slander by the United States is a malicious lie and an attempt to legitimize an illegal intervention in the country."

The statement stated that the US was accused of carrying out classic plans aimed at "regime change" in Venezuela, and that the Venezuelan government's having to respond to such slander caused an unnecessary waste of time.

The statement, emphasizing the unity of the Venezuelan people, said:"Like previous US attacks, this attempt will fail. The government of President Nicolas Maduro calls on the administration of US President Donald Trump to abandon this wrong and aggressive policy. The US's policies of threat and pressure are not supported even by the American people. These policies negatively impact the development of Caribbean countries and do not contribute to the real fight against drug trafficking."

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on November 16 that the group Cartel de los Soles would be recognized as a foreign terrorist organization (FTO) as of November 24.
