Venezuela's Defense Minister denies links with violent groups
[El Universal] Minister of Defense Carlos José Mata Figueroa said that the Venezuelan government "has no relationship whatsoever" with any "group that promotes violence.""No, no! Certainly not!" Mata said that his government rejects the "tendentious and dangerous campaigns" carried out by "some media corporations" which are "tools at the service of economic groups opposed to the interests of the Bolivarian revolution," Efe reported. Minister Mata Figueroa insisted on saying that Venezuela "has no relationship whatsoever" with any group that promotes violence and added that his country "respects" the sovereignty of states. In the same way, Venezuela asks for "respect," he added. The Venezuelan Minister of Defense said that the relations between his country and Spain are "excellent." Then his lips fell off.
