NICOLAS MADURO has unveiled a raft of infrastructure and social projects at summit of Latin American and Caribbean nations, but accused the US of a new plot to destabilise Venezuela.
The Venezuelan president was closing the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America — Peoples’ Trade Agreement conference in Caracas, at which member states finalised a key energy development plan on Tuesday.
Mr Maduro spoke of a number of agreed projects, including building a 1.5 megawatt wind farm in Antigua and Barbuda.
Other plans include the building and refurbishment of medical centres, schools and sports facilities and installing solar panels across the Caribbean.
But he accused the US of placing agents at its embassy in Caracas to orchestrate a new round of economic destabilisation and violent protests like those that rocked his country last year.
Venezuela’s largest brewer and food distributor Polar resumed production at some of its plants on Tuesday after they closed due to a shortage of malted barley.
