PFLP Concerned Over Venezuelan Reconciliation With Zionist Regime

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine expresses its deep concern regarding the statement issued by the Venezuelan Ministry of Popular Power for Foreign Affairs, in which an agreement was announced with the Zionist entity to continue bilateral technical cooperation and establish a consular coordination mechanism between the two parties, in addition to highlighting what the statement called the “historic bridge of friendship” between the Zionist entity and the Jewish community in Venezuela.

The Front believes that this step, particularly the opening of official channels for consular coordination and the continuation of bilateral cooperation, goes beyond a strictly technical and limited framework, and paves the way for the reconstruction of relations between Venezuela and the Zionist entity, thus opening the door to a process of normalization and the restoration of relations with it, at a time when the Zionist occupation continues its genocidal war and its aggression against the Palestinian people.

This development raises serious questions about the extent to which this measure is compatible with the historical legacy of the Bolivarian Revolution, led by the Eternal Commander Hugo Chávez, as well as with its principled positions against imperialism and Zionism, and in support of the rights of the Palestinian people to freedom and self-determination.

Finally, the Front reaffirms its confidence in the Venezuelan people and in the forces of the Bolivarian Revolution, as well as in their ability to preserve the independence of national decision-making, to adhere to the anti-imperialist, anti-Zionist, and anti-fascist legacy, and to continue defending the Palestinian people and their just cause.
