Николас Мадуро и жена признали себя невиновными в суде Нью-Йорка

Former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, appeared in a New York federal court to face charges related to narcoterrorism and weapons offenses. During the court appearance, they pleaded not guilty to the accusations. A significant point of contention was the use of Venezuelan government funds to finance their legal defense. Subsequently, the U.

S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control revoked the license that allowed the use of Venezuelan state funds for their defense. The case was overseen by Judge Alvin Hellerstein, highlighting ongoing legal and diplomatic tensions surrounding the allegations against Maduro and his wife in the United States.
