Maduro Says Venezuela & Brazil Should "Liberate" Puerto Rico from US | Vantage with Palki Sharma

Nicolas Maduro has been sworn in as the president of Venezuela for the third time. The West disputes his victory, and has imposed new sanctions. Maduro is happy to irritate the West. He upped the ante on Sunday, by saying that Venezuela and Brazil should work together to "liberate" the US territory of Puerto Rico from American colonialism. Puerto Rico has been asking for full statehood for years, but the US keeps finding excuses to deny them the right. How long will Puerto Ricans remain second-class citizens in the US?

Puerto rico will literally throw him off the island themselves. They do not want to be taken over by a dictator. Fidel Castro wasnt welcomed there and neither will Maduro.

[Heccordero]

Puerto Rico is not Cuba or Venezuela Puertoricans will kick Maduro out of PR quick😂

[edwinodus]

If he doesn't shut up, Trump will liberate Venezuela from him

[pabloroyalrangersflores]

Im Puertorican, and Maduro shold take back what he said, we are proud Americans and we will defend democrazy to all cost. Dont mes with US and dont mess with P.R.

[ghostdays]

Don't Venezuela have oil? Don't give the US any ideas. Sounds like Venezuela needs some freedom.

[MrMoonMath]

Imagine giving the U.S. a good reason to go to war 😅

[Naruto-ukn]

Politicians tend to blame other countries to hide their incompetence

[markusgorelli]

Maduro: Me and Brazil gonna liberate Puerto Rico
Brazil: Wait, what???
Puerto Rico: Wait, WHAT??!!! 😬😬

[chrisjackson]

Let him try. It's the perfect excuse for the U.S. to liberate Venezuela.

[johnmckinley]

My ex wife is from Puerto Rico and she is thriving because of the United States she would reject Venezuela rule just my opinion from past conversations years ago

[AJJax-kdkr]

The most powerful army in the world is waiting for him in Puerto Rico with open arms.

[Jonathan-ejw]

😂 Venezuela has nothing to offer Puerto Rico nothing at all 😂

[mudshovel]

There’s a lot of Puerto Ricans that joined the U.S. military. Like a lot. It’d be pretty ironic if he tries doing this and ends up fighting Puerto Rican troops.

[NDRWSCHANNEL]

Puerto Ricans have American blood in them. They also know war they fought alongside the U.S in WWll and many other wars.

[jdsheleg]

Puerto Ricans are not "second class-citizens", as you state. The political status of the government does not reduce the rights of the citizens. Puerto Ricans are citizens in its true sense, enjoying all the protection and rights provided by the US Constitution. The representation issue is one of politics and not of rights and freedom. Another example of this channel taking cheap shots at the USA.

[renzopinasco]

hahhaha Brazil will invade Venezuela if Maburro keeps saying nonsense like that.

[WooshTVonline]

He need to librate his own country his people are running to Mexico and Columbia .. Venezuela economy is bad and their people are running away ..

[pr_trp_gwd]

As a Puerto Rican let him try they won't make it far on the island we fought off better countries than his that's something they teach you in the history books.

[randyjb]

What a idiotic way to play semantics... The island of Puerto Rico is a colony but the people living in that island are American citizens they could move to any state and vote.. today's colony in the colony of old are two different things Puerto Rico is not being ran by slaves they are allowed to govern themselves and is given all of the resources of the United States and it's backed by the full might of its armies.. You can say what you want but there's a reason why the Puerto Ricans now want statehood

[mahdipara]

I'm from Iran. I think he's on drugs 😂
