Duque urges US to designate Venezuela a state sponsor of terrorism

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.

Colombia Arrests 10 Over Attacks on Duque s Helicopter, Military Base

Colombia Arrests 10 Over Attacks on Duque’s Helicopter, Military Base BOGOTA Colombia has arrested 10 people accused of involvement in attacks on a helicopter carrying President Ivan Duque and a military base last month that officials said on Thursday were planned by former FARC terrorist leaders based in Venezuela. The car bombing at the base in the northeastern city of Cucuta, home to the army’s 30th Brigade, wounded 44 people, including two U.S. military advisers. Later in June, a helicopter approaching the city with Duque and other officials aboard was strafed by bullets. The 10 people captured in Norte de Santander province are former Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) terrorists who reject a 2016 peace deal, Attorney General Francisco Barbosa said in a news conference broadcast via social media, and belong to the dissidents’ 33rd front.
