Cientos de venezolanos participaron este jueves en simulacros previos a los ejercicios cívico militares que se realizarán este fin de semana, ordenados por el presidente Nicolás Maduro para hacer frente a la “amenaza imperial” hecha por su par de EE.UU., Donald Trump, que dijo no descartar la opción militar para el país.
