{{Cquote|The objective of this attack is none other than to seize Venezuela’s [[strategic]] [[resources]], particularly its [[oil]] and [[REM|mineral]]s, in an attempt to forcibly break the [[nation]]'s [[political]] [[independence]]. They will not succeed. After more than 200 years of independence, the people and their [[legitimate]] [[government]] remain steadfast in defending their [[sovereignty]] and their [[inalienable right]] to decide their own destiny.
