美国检察官阻止马杜罗和弗洛雷斯使用国家资金进行法律辩护, 引用制裁, 因为他们的审判日期即将到来. U.S. prosecutors block Maduro and Flores from using state funds for legal defense, citing sanctions, as their trial date approaches.

美国检察官已经阻止委内瑞拉总统尼古拉斯·马杜罗和第一夫人西利亚·弗洛雷斯使用国家资金进行法律辩护,理由是制裁禁止此类使用. U.S. prosecutors have blocked Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores from using state funds for their legal defense, citing sanctions that prohibit such use. 但检察官坚持认为只有个人资产才可以被使用, 而不是政府的钱. The defendants argue this violates their constitutional rights, but prosecutors maintain that only personal assets can be used, not government money. 两人均表示不犯涉及毒品恐怖主义和持有武器的指控. The case stems from Maduro’s January 3 arrest in a U.S. operation, with both pleading not guilty to charges including narcoterrorism and weapons possession. 据悉, 法院将在3月26日举行听证会, A hearing is set for March 26, where the court will consider the defense’s motion and potential appointment of public defenders.
