The Minister of Popular Power for Foreign Affairs, Yván Gil, said on Monday that the European Union (EU) “does not develop or register any humanitarian project in Venezuela,” so he dismissed the supposed “aid” of 14.5 million euros announced by the continental bloc to the South American nation.

“To European taxpayers: while Brussels imposes cuts, demands adjustments and limits health, housing and employment budgets in its own member States, it proudly announces new millions for 'humanitarian aid' to Venezuela. But the truth is simple: not one euro of those funds reaches our town,” said the Chancellor.

In this regard, he said that “all this money ends up in the pockets of intermediaries and supposed NGOs that have made international financing a business”.

Gil reiterated that “those 14.5 million euros will not reach Venezuela. They will be, like the previous 149 million, another corruption operation disguised as solidarity. Enough of the corruption and false pretexts of the European Union! Venezuela is respected!” , he said.
