Deputy Diosdado Cabello said that from the PSUV they must be organized “to defend ourselves from whatever and against whomever (…) If they resume the path of violence, they will find us defending the homeland.”
The deputy and first vice president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (SUV), Diosdado Cabello, said this Monday, July 10, that his organization “has nothing to do” with the appeals filed by former presidential candidate Luis Ratti against the opposition primaries, scheduled for October 22.
“Ratti is not a Chavista, God protect us. We have nothing to do with it. In addition, he expresses his desire to be a candidate,” Cabello said during a press conference, where he pointed out that what the politician, who belonged to and led the Hugo Chávez Front in Aragua state, is a problem for the opposition.
Luis Ratti delivered this Monday 10 new elements under the constitutional protection that he introduced against the National Primary Commission on May 30, and pointed directly at the candidate María Corina Machado (Vente Venezuela) of violence through the October elections.
Diosdado Cabello also referred to the leader of Vente Venezuela, of whom he said “she has never stopped using violent language, she doesn’t care because her children are not here.”
“She has never abandoned her language against the Armed Forces, and now she comes out and says ‘when they see me they cry’, it will be laughable,” Cabello ironized. “They don’t know the Armed Forces, they have other paramilitary analysts (…) The Armed Forces are a family, and in a family when they mess with one, they mess with everyone.”
He also referred to the political disqualifications against several opposition leaders, including Machado, Freddy Superlano and Henrique Capriles, and separated the president Nicolás Maduro from these decisions. “President Nicolás Maduro does not even ask for them as they ask for them. Let me explain, they asked for sanctions and a blockade,” he said.
He accused Capriles of being disabled for being corrupt, and also assured that “in this country being an opponent is the exercise of how much there is for that and of corruption, because they come from there (…) If you want to assume power through political means electoral, you must have a party. Who among them has bothered to have a match? Why believe in the electoral path?
He also referred to the registration of voters abroad for the primaries, of which he said it barely exceeds, “according to their numbers, 200,000 people, and I emphasize, on their numbers because we have no reason to believe them. If they are those numbers, what has happened to the eight million, according to them, who have left the country?
He called these numbers “sorry” and accused the Primary Commission of planning a “scam” through this registry, since voters are supposedly promised that they will be able to participate in the presidential elections. In addition, he speculated that this number of registered responds to a “disconnection” and “displeasure” of Venezuelans abroad with the opposition itself, by requesting sanctions that affected middle-class businesses.
He pointed out that the lack of relations with the United States is the fault of “the Venezuelan opposition” and that country. “What we have asked for is respect.”
Deputy Cabello said that from the PSUV they must be organized “to defend ourselves from whatever and against whomever (…) If they resume the path of violence, they will find us defending the homeland.”
He explained that in recent weeks they have carried out 82 mobilizations throughout the country in support of Maduro, which they hope will be replicated in all the municipalities of the country. “This is not an act of the PSUV, it is an act of meeting of the Venezuelans and notice the difference when the revolution arrives in a sector and the opposition arrives running over (…) We do not make mobilizations just for the photo.”
