Carabobo governor Francisco Ameliach is serious about crime.
How serious?
So serious, the guy is giving the state’s criminal gangs a deadline: give up all your weapons within 20 days, or else.

We’ve been able to hang on for 19 years in one of the craziest media landscapes in the world. Now, the difficulty level was raised abruptly with the global pandemic. We’ve seen different media outlets in Venezuela (and abroad) cutting personnel to avoid closing shop. This is something we’re looking to avoid at all costs, and it seems we will.
