In recent days, the military operations conducted by the United States in Venezuela and the situation of President Nicolas Maduro have become one of the main items on the international media agenda.

In a report that appeared in The New York Times and sparked great controversy, it was claimed that the Washington administration had issued an ultimatum to Maduro to step down from power and go to Turkey.

Following these developments, while the accuracy of the claims was being questioned, Venezuela's Ambassador to Turkey, Gutierrez, made clear statements on the subject during a live broadcast on Sözcü TV.

Freddy Eduardo Molina Gutierrez answered questions from reporter Bala Ateş Irmak and made assessments regarding the recent events in his country and relations with Turkey. The ambassador described the military intervention Maduro is facing as an attack unprecedented in modern history. Emphasizing that the US is clearly violating legal principles, Gutierrez reacted to Maduro being forcibly removed from his home and presented to the world as a "war trophy."

DENIED CLAIMS OF ASYLUM IN TURKEY

Addressing the speculations regarding Venezuela, Gutierrez categorically denied the "asylum in Turkey" claim in The New York Times report. "This claim is part of a disinformation war and a media war strategy. Seeking asylum in Turkey has never been on the table. It has never been on the agenda for the President to abandon his responsibilities," he said, clarifying the questions asked.

While no official announcement has come from the Venezuelan administration, these statements by the ambassador have become the focus of commentary both on the Caracas-Ankara line and on a global scale. How the developments will take shape in the coming days is being awaited with curiosity.
