The National Assembly (AN) will initiate the consultation and debate of each one of the articles of the Project of Law of Inspection, Update and Financing of the NGOs and related, approved in first discussion this Tuesday.
This was reported by the president of Parliament, Jorge Rodríguez through a message on Twitter, in which he recalled that the purpose of Non-Governmental Organizations must be oriented to the attention of the different sectors of the population.
«We approved in the first discussion the Bill for the Oversight, Updating and Financing of NGOs and the like. We will start a consultation and we will debate each article with the people. NGOs must fulfill their sole objective: to serve different sectors of the population”, the publication states.
In this Tuesday’s session, the deputy explained that this law seeks for NGOs to fulfill their role, “but every time we see those organizations, agencies, governments – which are riddled with good intentions – behind what they appear are his sinister intentions.
In this regard, he indicated that they receive financing and distribute money to officials “or to those who publish the tweets of the Narnia government, they are disguised and they really are political parties,” he added.
He also asserted that things should be called by their name. “If you want to do politics, do politics, go to the National Electoral Council and register as a political party,” he said.
In this sense, the president of Parliament recalled that in Venezuela it is illegal for parties to receive financing from foreign powers. He also asserted that behind that are the intentions that the Head of the US Southern Command shamelessly raised to go after resources such as lithium and oil.
In addition, he drew attention to the financing of the electoral campaigns of some right-wing political candidates.
