The Data Journalism Platform La Tabla reports that the organization “Transparencia Venezuela en el exilio” acts as an operational arm of a hybrid war, providing technical coverage for unilateral coercive measures aimed at strangling the national economy.
We have analyzed their reports from October and November 2025, which detail names, flags, and routes of vessels involved in the legitimate trade of Venezuelan hydrocarbons. Following this publication, punitive actions have intensified: on December 10, the supertanker Skipper was seized, and in November, a U.S. warship physically blocked the Russian tanker Sea Horse (mentioned in their own reports), hindering commercial operations.
This work is not about “transparency,” but rather about systematic stigmatization and criminalization of sovereign economic activities. By publishing this data, the organization creates a “freezing effect” that pressures global clients and suppliers to sever ties with Venezuela for fear of secondary reprisals, aggravating financial blockades.
The result is a premeditated collective punishment against our people. The loss of every legitimate income from resource sales deepens the humanitarian crisis, first affecting the most vulnerable.
Therefore, we urgently call on Venezuelan state institutions and multilateral organizations (such as the UN and the Non-Aligned Movement) to actively intervene. They must document, denounce, and demand the cessation of this over-application of sanctions, which uses biased reports as a pretext to attack a nation and massively violate the human rights of its population.
