00:18When we go to the official maps,

00:21the routes of cocaine, only 5% aims to go through Venezuelan territory.

00:34And of that 5%,

00:39we have a reach of 70% seizure and destruction of that drug that intended to cross Venezuelan territory,

00:49that is submitted to great pressures due to the long border with the main producer of cocaine in the world.

01:05There we can see that Colombia is the first country in terms of production of cocaine in the world,

01:12Peru is the second and Bolivia is the third.

01:17What does this mean?

01:19That Venezuela, firstly,

01:22is not a country that produces cocaine.

01:26Secondly,

02:59If they truly did not want that drug to reach the United States,

03:05if that is their true intention,

03:09to stop the arrival of cocaine to the United States,

03:14that, unfortunately, faces a real issue of public health,
