He stressed that the world’s worthy, free and sovereign peoples face old and new forms of aggression. “The rifles and gunboats of the past, today reborn in new forms of aggression euphemistically called sanctions, are the same military interventions and the same interferences perpetrated by the Yankee empire in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries”.
