In an undisclosed decision, the Government banned a Chavista official from entering the country

Argentina prevented the entry into the country of Chavista deputy María Iris Varelaone of the most prominent figures of the Nicolás Maduro regime.

This happened on Thursday, when he tried to enter Argentina via Jorge Newbery Airport.

Immigration officials did not allow him to enter the country because he was part of the list of Venezuelan government officials allowed in 2019 for Inter-American Treaty of Reciprocal Assistance (TIAR).

So far the Government has allowed the entry into the country of other people or regime planes on the international blacklist.

Varela is current vice president of the fraudulent Chavista National Assembly. He was Minister of Penitentiary Services of the Maduro regime. In 2019 he was accused of release ordinary prisoners to suppress opposition protests.

On February 23, 2019, he was seen with Chavista groups (armed paramilitaries) leading attacks against citizens who attempted to enter humanitarian aid on the Colombian border.

In the same year he was included in the list of persons authorized by the OAS’s Inter-American Treaty of Reciprocal Assistance (TIAR). Two years before it was approved by the United States and Canada.

The decision made today by the Argentine Government has not yet been made. On December 10, 2019, it allowed the entry of Jorge Rodriguezwas Minister of Communications, which weighs in on international restrictions.

The officer participated in Fernández’s inauguration. He was under the management of the media and was accused of prosecuting journalists who opposed the Chavista regime.

meeting of deputies

In March, three Venezuelan deputies, two Chavistas and one claiming to be from the opposition, arrived in Buenos Aires in agreement with the Nicolás Maduro government.

They sought information for the investigation into the Buenos Aires complaint by journalist Horacio Verbitsky that the Argentine armed forces had an exercise in 2019, during the government of Mauricio Macri, whose main purpose was the invasion of Venezuela, in plans including the United States. .

The entourage was received by deputies from Kirchnerism such as Eduardo Valdes, president of the Foreign Relations Commission of the Chamber of Deputies; and by ultra cristinists Leopoldo Moreau and Rodolfo Tailhade.

But they were also welcomed by members of Parlasur, among them Oscar Laborde, who was mentioned as Alberto Fernández’s future ambassador to Venezuela, because the Government wanted to “normalize” its good relations with Chavismo and raise the category of representation. which is now in the hands of business manager, Eduardo Porretti.

The three Venezuelans are accompanied by Maduro’s charge d’affaires in Argentina, Stella Lugo, who usually presents herself as ambassador. And they will be received by second and third level officials in the Defense and Foreign Ministry but not by the authorities as they have announced.
