These were the words of the Venezuelan conductor Gustavo Dudamel, who confirmed through his user on the social network Twitter the cancellation of a US tour of the National Youth Orchestra.

This Sunday, it was known that the Office of the President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela canceled the tour without some kind of explanation or confirmation.

The action is considered a "bill pass," after Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro said Friday that the conductor Gustavo Dudamel, who criticized the election of the Constituent Assembly, did not understand his government.
