“This is as a result of a three day conference of International Journalists, that convened in Venezuela, to look at ways of combating main stream media propaganda, that is directed against Venezuela. The Venezuelan Government has declared that it will build such a University, starting in January of 2020. World of this came from President Nicholas Maduro at the closing ceremony of the International Conference,” stated Mr. Collins.
