According to the chair of the National Assembly, Deputy Nicolás Maduro, the list forwarded by Colombia to Venezuela including the names of 10 guerrilla members who are presumably in Venezuela, is part of a plan framed by the US government to destabilize Latin America.

The parliamentarian said that the intervention of the US government in the Venezuelan-Colombian conflict as a result of the detention of the "chancellor" of the Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces, Rodrigo Granda, is a "publicity show" as an attempt to damage relations of the two South-American nations.
