Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez announced plans to leverage agreements from the 2015 National Assembly to allocate gold reserves to areas impacted by recent earthquakes. This funding will be directed towards providing aid to families who have lost their homes due to the natural disaster. Simultaneously, the government intends to construct 2,100 temporary, single-family shelters in Ciudad Caribia to house those displaced by the quakes. The move signals an effort to address the immediate housing needs of affected communities. Rodríguez highlighted the importance of these actions in providing support during a time of crisis. The use of gold reserves represents an unconventional approach to disaster relief funding. Further details regarding the specific allocation process and the extent of gold usage are expected to be released soon.
