The president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, highlighted on Monday the 16% growth in investment in the country during the first half of 2024, double the national economic growth of 8%.

During the 56th broadcast of his show Con Maduro+, the Head of State stated that this “means that a virtuous cycle of growth, wealth generation and reinvestment is taking place to continue growing, because if it is twofold it means that new investors are taking foresight to get into the game”.

He stressed that “this is generally the case with the economic apparatus (...) I can tell you that there is a queue of international investors trying to come to Venezuela to invest in oil, far beyond the United States, Europe, the Western world is lagging behind, in Venezuelan oil, in Venezuelan gas, in Venezuelan petrochemistry, in the development of Venezuelan minerals, iron, aluminum, coltan and gold, in the Venezuelan industry, in Venezuelan tourism.”

On the other hand, the Dignitary exalted that tax collection increased by 143% in the first half of the year. “I could compare it as a puzzle that is being completed to build a new economic map of the country, a new economic apparatus and we must all take care of it, that is why peace, political stability, national harmony, national dialogue are so important, that is why it is so important to take care of Venezuela so that the investments that are being made, small, medium, large, large, national and international, continue to bear fruit,” he emphasized.
