The Vice President of the Republic announced that they took a “set of actions.”
Given the increase in the parallel dollar in recent days, the President of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, spoke on his social networks and “ordered to take measures.”
“Faced with the attack of the criminal dollar, I ordered the economic team to take measures in defense of the official rate, for a healthy trade that respects the rights of the people,” he wrote on his social networks.
He argued that there will be “merry Christmas” and that they will defeat the “mayamera mafias.”
“No one will stop economic growth,” he closed on Twitter.
The parallel dollar passed 18 bolivars at the end of this week. The official rate of the Central Bank of Venezuela also increased, although not to the same extent.
The week began at 11.53 bolivars, while it closed at 14.12 bolivars.
Faced with the attack of the criminal dollar, I ordered the economic team to take measures in defense of the Official Tax, for a healthy trade that respects the rights of the people. We will guarantee a happy Christmas by defeating the Mayan mafias. No one will stop economic growth!
