In remarks about the opening of the supermarket, our ambassador to Venezuela said good relations between us and Venezuela are what “counter” U.S. pressures against both states. Golsan ship unloaded its cargo of food and medical supplies at Venezuela’s northern port of La Guayra on June 21 to supply the supermarket, said Tasnim. The country has sent five gas tankers to Venezuela over the past months amid the shortage of fuel supply in the Latin American country under the U.S. sanction pressures.
With the opening of Megasis, supermarket in the Venezuelan capital, the two countries sanctioned by the United States reaffirm their proximity and their defiance of Washington’s policies. This is what Tehran offered Caracas. The more than 3,000 products for sale and their distant origin attracted hundreds of consumers from the middle-class neighborhood Terrazas del Ávila, located in the Mirandino municipality of Petare, which also houses the largest favela in Venezuela and is part of the Capital District of Caracas.
