Duque urges US to designate Venezuela a state sponsor of terrorism 2 minutes read
Bogota, Jul 26 (EFE).- Colombia’s president on Monday called on the United States to designate Venezuela a state sponsor of terrorism, saying that leftist-led country is harboring guerrillas who have claimed responsibility for recent attacks on a military base and the presidential helicopter.
“Clearly that tacit consent on the part of Venezuela’s dictatorial regime warrants its being declared by the United States as a state sponsor of terrorism,” Ivan Duque said at a conference in Bogota focused on analyzing and preventing urban terrorism that was attended by US Ambassador to Colombia Philip Goldberg.
