The different regions of the country held rallies and marches this Saturday to denounce the interference of the United States Government and its acts of piracy in order to steal Venezuelan oil.
In a demonstration of patriotism, the people of the Ezequiel Zamora municipality of the Cojedes state joined the national day of protest called by the President of the Republic Nicolás Maduro, with a large motorized caravan and a march that started from the Mauricio Pérez Lazo Cultural Complex to Caracas Avenue in San Carlos, headquarters of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (Psuv) in the entity.
The day was accompanied by Jhony Flores, coordinator of the Sinbom Motorized Force; Alfredo Mujica, coordinator of the motorized organization Leones de Acero and spokespersons for the Movement for Peace and Life in Cojedes, who marched alongside the people in defense of national sovereignty.

«We join the national protest to demand the immediate cessation of sanctions and respect for international law; Likewise, we reaffirm that these Bolivarian people will remain firm in the defense of their wealth and sovereignty,” Flores highlighted.
