Saldivar says, US Department of States’ Declaration, “Baseless and Malicious”

John Saldivar responded to the U.S. Department of State’s declaration late this evening. In a social media statement, Saldivar said that the declaration is “left field, baseless, and malicious”.  According to Saldivar, as a minister of government he conducted himself with honesty and integrity. He says he is at a loss as to why the U.S. Department of State would want to target him and his family without providing absolutely any evidence to explain their conclusion. Saldivar says he is consulting with local attorneys and is fully aware that he will need a U.S. attorney to defend himself in the U.S. The former Belmopan Area Representative contends that there are persons with powerful allies in the US Department of State who want him out of Belizean politics. But, he says he is here to stay and will not allow these, “unfounded and malicious allegation to drive me out of politics”.
