Venezuela blames 4 day old sanctions.... for 10 year old shortages!

Delcy Rodriguez culpa a las sanciones de EEUU de la escasez de medicamentos y alimentos
Delcy Rodriguez blames U.S. sanctions on food shortages and medicines

La presidenta de la Asamblea Nacional Constituyente (ANC) de Venezuela, la chavista Delcy Rodriguez, dijo que su pais no tiene como pagar alimentos y medicamentos que se encuentran en embarcaciones en las costas, tras el decreto que firmo el viernes el presidente de EE.UU., Donald Trump.
The President of the National Constituent Assembly (ANC) of Venezuela, the Chavista Delcy Rodríguez, said that her country does not have (the ability) to pay for food and drugs that are found in (ships) on the coasts, following the decree signed on Friday by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Curious thing... these food carrying ships (very few) often turn around and leave VZ waters when nobody ponies up the cash (and cash only!) for these imports. This has been going on for YEARS... but the Chavistas won't let a good crisis get in the way of the facts. As far as her country not having the cash to feed Venezuela? They seem to have money to pay back the vultures at Goldman Sachs?!?!

Perhaps the Chavistas can get a loan from Cuba... or better yet, Chavez' daughter, Maria. Worth an estimated $4.2 billion dollars. Not a bad income for a low level diplomat at the UN! Its good to be the daughter of the King!

... claimed during her time as foreign minister that there was no shortage of food or medicine in Venezuela. These assholes think people don't see through their bullshit anymore.
