CARACAS - Venezuela will ask the United Nations to help remove landmines in its territory that it says have been deployed by “irregular” armed groups near the Colombian border, President Nicolas Maduro said on Sunday. Maduro’s government on Thursday said two soldiers were killed by a land mine during military operations in the state of Apure, where clashes between soldiers and armed groups has led thousands of Venezuelans to flee across the border.

The government will ask UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres for “immediate emergency assistance so that they can bring all of the techniques to deactivate the minefields that these irregular groups have left behind,” Maduro said in a televised broadcast.Colombian President Ivan Duque has accused Venezuela of sheltering members of the National Liberation Army, or ELN, and dissidents of the FARC rebel group who reject a 2016 peace deal with the Colombian government. Maduro denies the claim.

Rights groups from the two countries on Wednesday called on the UN to appoint a special envoy to address the humanitarian crisis on the border, which has been for years a center of drug trafficking and smuggling.

What Venezuela needs is help to free us from his communist dictatorship, to be a democratic country again

He should ask them to stop supporting coups aimed at stealing recourses and attacking the poor and indigenous people of Venezuela, who keep winning elections despite their meddling.

Venezuela needs help to take this mf** down

Who planted the mines to begin with Let Venezuela and Colombia go clean the mess they created, not the U.N.

I wish you can adopt the agriculture system likewise your neighbors brazil 🇧🇷 which became the eighth most powerful economic in the world,instead of empty revolutionary allegations

This is the only help Maduro should get..

The Bible condemns all White supremacy 2 cor 5:16 So from now on we know no man from a fleshly viewpoint. Rom 8:13 for if you live according to the flesh, you are sure to die

This is either so they can move drugs across the border more easily, or so he can better move his troops or allied narco rebel groups around that area.

isn't this the bus driver, shouldn't he have looked into this before now?

I think the UN’S assistance is better deployed to Myanmar, where there’s an humanitarian catastrophe unfolding

Assista na íntegra ou de 16:36min, e saiba + da podridão revelada do submundo desse Brasil dos abutres. Igreja 'Maranata', do fundador da Presbiteriana e comendador da maldita luciferiana Maçonaria, formadora de corporações criminosas variadas:

Good! They can help with border problem, You think! In turn for our help.

This criminal asks for help and when they tell him that he is not going to control the resources, he rejects the help as he did with the covax vaccines

Get the rats!!

Ya ok

I read Columbia has one of the highest land mine rates in the world.

Yes, request help and funds. The funds of the country have been shifted to private swiss bank accounts by corrupt politicians and their lackeys.

Why was Trump banned?
