On Saturday, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro spoke to his country, announcing the arrest of an American citizen because of his involvement in a “coup conspiracy.” He also established sanctions on Dick Cheney and George W. Bush, declaring them “terrorists.” To top it off, he accused the US government of keeping secret “concentration camps” for children.

One of the men whom Maduro arrested was a United States pilot of Latin American descent. Tachira, where the man was arrested, has been home to much violence against student protesters since civil strife peaked in 2013. Just last week, a National Guard soldier shot a 14­year­old in San Cristobal, Tachira, as he was walking home from school.

Although Maduro has claimed to have “loads of evidence” against the pilot, he has not spoken of its nature. He has only disclosed that it is clear evidence of a “coup plot,” and the pilot was merely one of the suspects.

The sanctions on George Bush, Dick Cheney, and other legislators that Maduro mentioned in his speech mean that these individuals are now barred from traveling to Venezuela. Additionally, any American entering Venezuela must pay a fee and carry a special visa. Maduro also outlawed interaction between Venezuelan citizens and American diplomats without a permit from the government. Perhaps most sickening, Maduro claimed that the U.S. has concentration camps that hold thousands of prisoners, including Latino and African American children. The prisoners suffer “daily persecution.”

The U.S. Congress told the media that they had not made any decisions regarding Maduro’s sanctions, because the Venezuelan government has not officially communicated with Washington yet.
