With warm greetings

R Muraleedharan Nair
General Secretary

AIBDPA strongly condemn the US strikes on Venezuela and capturing the President Mr.Nikolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores.
In an audacious raid into the world’s oil-rich country,captured President and his wife and took them out of country in an extraordinary night time operation.
The U S president Donald Trump declared that they will “run”Venezuela.
This imperialist attack of U S on a sovereign country is against international laws and demonstrated their world-police attitude and is highly condemnable.
AIBDPA stands with the people of Venezuela and pledge our Solidarity and support to restore the freedom of Venezuela.

R.Muraleedharan Nair
General Secretary.
