Washington habilita al Estado venezolano a cubrir con fondos públicos la defensa de Maduro y Cilia Flores

The US government has granted Venezuela permission to use public funds to cover the legal defense costs of Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores, who are facing charges in New York for drug trafficking. This move allows the Venezuelan government to pay for their legal representation after a long-standing blockage by the US Treasury Department. The decision comes after months of legal battles and pressure from both sides, with Maduro's lawyers seeking dismissal of the case and the US government maintaining sanctions against Venezuela.
