In the demonstration, participants also condemned the United States’ aggression against Venezuela and demanded the immediate release of the Venezuelan president and his wife, according to a report to Prensa Latina by Jahangir Khan, president of the Tricontinental Campaign for Venezuela in Bangladesh.
Khan, who also leads the Simon Bolivar Grand Global Rehabilitation and Training Center for the Ultra-Poor in Goal Bathan, Madhabpasha, Barisal, Bangladesh, stated in a letter that numerous campaigns are underway there to support the South American country in defending its sovereignty.
Khan expressed his organization’s dismay at seeing Venezuelans passionately demanding the return of their president. “Our response and urgent appeal to the world must be to raise our voices against Yankee aggression against Venezuela,” he demanded.
He asserted that they have joined campaigns with Germany in Europe, Tunisia in Africa, and Jamaica in the Caribbean for the Bolivarian world, for peace and development, and urged the global spread of the Bolivarian Revolution to free President Nicolas Maduro and his wife.
In that regard, the Bangladeshi peasant leader reaffirmed that 40,000 signatures from farmers in Barisal have been added to a global petition with that objective.
