The Minister for Labor, Eduardo Piñate, assured that the territorial Militia is in the streets “to continue strengthening Bolivarian democracy and in the face of threats and harassment from the empire, here is the strength of the working class and the people in arms willing to fight.” “Defend peace through political power,” said Piñate, who accompanied the President to receive the march at the Miraflores Palace.
Piñate said that, in this march of the Militia, “the fighting bodies of the working class, from PDVSA, Corpoelec, Pequiven, cement, transportation and construction” joined.
For his part, the general commander of the Militia, M/G Romero Bolívar, recalled that the presence this day “of the people in the street, is the same feat of that April 19, 1810, where a group of Venezuelans called council so that they will hand over the last remaining part of the Spanish crown and thus a Republic was born.”
The Militia march took place in the context of the anniversary of the death of the Liberator Simón Bolívar, after December 17, 194 years since his death.
