Nicolás Maduro assured this Wednesday that his government deserves the Nobel Prize in Economics, supposedly for overcoming “the blockade.”
Nobel
“Faced with the sanctions, what we did was stand up; put the coconut; look for the best world advisers in economics, currency, finance, fiscal policies, productive policies. And today we can say that we deserve the Nobel Prize in Economics because we have pushed ahead on our own, with the Bolivarian Economic Agenda and the 18 engines”. This was stated by him during a broadcast by VTV.
In his speech he also stated: “The blockade accelerated the process of overcoming the rentier oil economy and made a new diversified economy begin to emerge, with virtuous cycles to produce food, goods, services, energy.”
Similarly, he reiterated the comment that Venezuelans who have emigrated are in worse conditions than those who lived in Venezuela.
“There are many cases where the mother or relatives who stayed here are sending money to Venezuelans so they can pay for a 20-square-meter room in Lima or Chile,” he said.
All this during the inauguration of the so-called “Expoferia Caprina y Ovina Miranda 2022”, in which he insisted that the remains of the national economy include “self-sufficiency with national production and becoming a food exporter to the world.”
