RUSH EXCERPT:
MACHADO: “Thank you very much, Rachel, and to all of you for what you have done for Venezuela. And I decided to dedicate it to President Trump because he deserves it. Not only has he been involved in only a few months in solving eight wars, but his actions have been decisive to have Venezuela now at the threshold of freedom after 26 years of tyranny. That has destroyed the lives of millions of Venezuela, destabilized region and undermines institutions In the United States because it’s a safe haven of the enemies of the United States. And you’ve seen our territory and our resources to hurt the American people and American institutions. It’s certainly a threat to the national security of the United States and the security of the hemisphere. President Trump has been very clear, courageous in terms of dismantling these criminal structures, and on behalf of the Venezuelan people I reaffirmed our gratitude and our commitment to this cause for the whole Americas."
