Venezuela’s Justice Minister Diosdado Cabello is blaming Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar for a deadly US naval strike last week.
According to El Pitazo, an independent Venezuelan news site, he made the comments during his weekly television programme.
Mr Cabello said her praise of the attack could endanger regional fishermen and also believes she would be “highly responsible” if harm comes.
Additionally, the Minister accused the US of using force for political gain and access to Venezuela’s oil resources.
