China's 5th plane of medical aid to Venezuela contains over 157 tons of tests, masks, & protective gear.

Every shipment that China sends is a violation of US sanctions.

All nations must follow China's lead in its defiance of US sanctions and aggression. https://twitter.com/jaarreaza/status/1260634033102426113?s=20

China's Ambassador to Venezuela handed over the aid to Venezuela's foreign minister in front of a mural of Hugo Chavez and affirmed that China stands with Venezuela amidst US aggression:

"China & Venezuela's cooperation is strengthened to fight together." https://twitter.com/CancilleriaVE/status/1260574834184138764?s=20

China's fifth aid shipment comes amidst tightening US sanctions. Because of sanctions, China is Venezuela's primary partner willing to send aid. After the coup attempts, China stated:

"China warns that it will not accept any US invasion of Venezuela" https://www.hispantv.com/noticias/china/465362/eeuu-invasion-venezuela-maduro

For countries fighting US imperialism, sanctions, & aggression—whether it be Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, the DPRK—China is these countries' strongest ally & trading partner. China steadfastly continues to defy US sanctions, defends these countries, & provide direly needed goods & aid.
