The Minister for Defense, G/J Vladimir Padrino López, dismantled the campaign against the Bolivarian National Armed Forces on social networks by media operators of opposition extremism where they pointed out the desertion of two senior officers of the Bolivarian Military Aviation.

From the Paseo Monumental de Los Próceres in Caracas, where the departure of a caravan of BTR-80A tanks was being prepared as part of the day of The Barracks Go to the People, the also Sectorial Vice President of Political Sovereignty, Security and Peace, recorded a video accompanied by the head of the Strategic Operational Command of the FANB (CEOFANB), G/J, Domingo Hernández Lárez and the G/B Pedro Rafael Suárez Caballero of Bolivarian Military Aviation (AMB), who would have been identified by the laboratories of opposition extremism as a deserter who had fled At United States.

“Here I am with Major General Suárez Caballero of Bolivarian Military Aviation, a tremendous general, very disciplined, very prepared, with a discipline marked by his professional career and who in the networks is being considered a deserter in that little game of destabilization and cognitive war they have against the Armed Forces, against institutions, against Venezuelan democracy, but here he is alive and running,” he said.

He specified that, like Suárez Cabellero, another of those singled out by opposition extremism is G/B Bitner Villegas, “the pilot of our Commander in Chief (Nicolás Maduro), also deserted by you, he is here because there is no desertion here, here there is life, combat, deep soul and combative spirit”.
