Rubio Joins Scott, Díaz-Balart Meet With Community Leaders to Reiterate Support for Guaidó
Miami, FL— U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) today joined U.S. Senator Rick Scott (R-FL), Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart (R-FL) and Venezuelan, Colombian, Cuban and Nicaraguan community leaders in Doral, FL in support of freedom and human rights in Venezuela. During the roundtable discussion Rubio also spoke to Romy Moreno de Marrero and Belén Marrero, wife and sister of President Juan Guaidó’s incarcerated Chief of Staff.
Rubio is Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues.
“During today’s roundtable with Senator Scott, Congressman Diaz-Balart and leaders of the community, I reiterated my support for Interim President Juan Guaidó and his effort to restore democracy and defend human rights in Venezuela,” Rubio said. “Maduro has no credibility as his inner circle conspires against him and as the Venezuelan people continue to show strong support for President Guaidó. I thank Romy Moreno de Marrero and Belén Marrero, wife and sister of President Guaidó’s incarcerated Chief of Staff, for joining us today and once again sharing Roberto’s story.”
“I am grateful for our community in South Florida that is fighting so hard to end Maduro’s ruthless regime. It is clear that the reason the crisis continues is because of the influence of Cuba, Russia, China, Iran and Hezbollah, who are all in Venezuela right now and want to inflict pain and torture on the people,” Scott said. “This must end. Together, we will not let evil triumph in Venezuela. The time for talking is over, and I’m proud to join Senator Rubio, Congressman Diaz-Balart and so many brave individuals in the fight for freedom and democracy in Venezuela and throughout Latin America. The safety and security of our nation depend on this fight.”
“I was honored to join Senators Rick Scott and Marco Rubio, along with community leaders today to discuss the ongoing humanitarian and democratic crisis in Venezuela,” Díaz-Balart said. “The Venezuelan people have suffered for far too long under the oppression and corruption of the Maduro regime aided by adversaries such as the Cuban dictatorship. The Cuban malignancy has spread throughout Venezuela and has long has extended its anti-American, anti-democracy tentacles throughout our hemisphere, from assisting the FARC in destabilizing Colombia, to bolstering the anti-American, repressive regimes in Bolivia and Nicaragua. The Maduro dictatorship must go so that the Venezuelan people may begin the process of rebuilding their country, and to protect America’s key national security interests in our hemisphere.”
RUBIO, SCOTT, DÍAZ-BALART SE REÚNEN CON LÍDERES DE LA COMUNIDAD PARA REITERAR SU APOYO A GUAIDÓ
Miami, FL— El senador estadounidense Marco Rubio (R-FL), Rick Scott (R-FL), y el congresista Mario Díaz-Balart (R-FL) se reunieron hoy con líderes de la comunidad venezolana, colombiana, cubana y nicaragüense en el Doral,FL para reiterar su apoyo a la libertad y derechos humanos en Venezuela. Durante su charla, Rubio también habló con Romy Moreno de Marrero y Belén Marrero, esposa y hermana del encarcelado jefe de gabinete del Presidente Juan Guaidó.
Rubio es el presidente del Subcomité de Relaciones Exteriores para el Hemisferio Occidental, Delincuencia Transnacional, Seguridad Civil, Democracia, Derechos Humanos y Asuntos Globales de la Mujer.
“Durante la charla de hoy con el senador Scott, el congresista Díaz-Balart y los líderes de la comunidad, reiteré mi apoyo al presidente interino Juan Guaidó y sus esfuerzos para restaurar la democracia y defender los derechos humanos en Venezuela”, Rubio dijo. Maduro no tiene credibilidad a medida que su círculo más cercano conspira en su contra y el pueblo venezolano continúa mostrando su apoyo al presidente Guaidó. Agradezco a Romy Moreno de Marrero y a Belén Marrero, esposa y hermana del detenido jefe de despacho del Presidente Guaidó, por acompañarnos hoy y una vez más compartir la historia de Roberto”.
“Estoy agradecido por nuestra comunidad en el sur de la Florida que está luchando arduamente para terminar con el despiadado régimen de Maduro”, Scott dijo. “Está claro que la razón por la cual la crisis continúa es debido a la influencia de Cuba, Rusia, China, Irán y Hezbolá, quienes están todos en Venezuela en este momento y quieren infligir dolor y tortura a la gente de Venezuela. Esto debe terminar. Juntos, no vamos a dejar que el mal triunfe en Venezuela. Se acabó el tiempo de hablar y me enorgullece unirme al senador Rubio, al congresista Díaz-Balart y a tantas personas valientes en la lucha por la libertad y la democracia en Venezuela y en toda América Latina. La seguridad de nuestra nación depende de esta lucha”.
“Fue un honor unirme a los senadores Rick Scott y Marco Rubio, junto con líderes de la comunidad hoy para discutir la actual crisis humanitaria y democrática en Venezuela”, Díaz-Balart dijo. “El pueblo venezolano ha sufrido durante demasiado tiempo bajo la opresión y la corrupción del régimen de Maduro, apoyado por adversarios como la dictadura cubana. La malignidad cubana se ha extendido por todo Venezuela, y ha extendido sus tentáculos antiamericanos y antidemocráticos en todo nuestro hemisferio, desde ayudar a las FARC a desestabilizar a Colombia, a reforzar los regímenes represivos antiamericanos en Bolivia y Nicaragua. La dictadura de Maduro debe largarse para que el pueblo venezolano pueda comenzar el proceso de reconstrucción de su país, y para proteger los intereses de seguridad nacional de Estados Unidos en nuestro hemisferio”.
