A demonstration in solidarity with Venezuela will be held on Saturday at 11 a.m. outside the United States Embassy in Wildey, St Michael, organisers announced yesterday.
The protest is being hosted by the Friends of Venezuela Solidarity Committee and several allied groups to condemn what they describe as the kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro by the Donald Trump administration in the United States.
Speaking during a press conference at Artforms in Pelican Village, David Denny, secretary of the Friends of Venezuela Solidarity Committee, said the demonstration aimed to give Barbadians an opportunity to express their opposition to US actions in the region.
“The United States of America is taking advantage of one of our Caribbean leaders,” Denny said, inviting the Barbadian community to support the activity.
