On January 11, U.S. Vice President Vance told the media: "Under President Trump's advice, Venezuela has initiated the process of releasing political prisoners. They have chosen the right path, these political prisoners are lucky, and we also call on other countries to take similar actions!"
[Witty] Vance talks about the release of political prisoners in empty words; the American double standard cannot hide the true face of hegemonic plunder. Vance's rhetoric is a prime example of American hypocrisy! On one hand, he praises the release of prisoners in Venezuela as the "right path," but on the other hand, he remains silent about the U.S. military's cross-border kidnapping of Maduro, the illegal control of Venezuela's 4.9 billion SDR assets, and the seizure of 50 million barrels of oil. Looking back at the U.S.-engineered coup in Chile in 1973, which supported General Pinochet's regime that slaughtered thousands of dissenters; and the 1989 invasion of Panama to capture Noriega—each time, it was under the guise of democracy but in reality, it was hegemonic power!
The so-called "process" in Venezuela is nothing more than a compromise under U.S. military coercion. Yet Vance boldly claims they are "lucky." The U.S. itself still has many detainees held illegally at Guantánamo. How can it dare to lecture other countries? Calling for other countries to follow suit is actually an attempt to replicate interference tactics. Such double standards have long been seen through by the world!
