"If it had not reached the Revolution, at this stage we would be drowned in the depth of the most appalling crisis that would have remembered the story. The United States wanted to become its colony forever, that the dollar flow and capital move freely. If that had happened, those banks that are broken today had swallowed the Venezuelan private and public banks, "he said.
