After 1:30 p.m., after a concentration of thousands of people, most of them young, from 9:00 a.m., the so-called Marcha Tricolor began from Plaza Venezuela, commemorating Youth Day and 209 years of the Battle of La Victory.
During the rally, leaders of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) met on the main stage, including the first vice president of the awning, Diosdado Cabello, along with Carmen Meléndez, and Rodbexa Poleo. Representatives of all directions of that organization in the country attended the march for the Youth of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela (Jpsuv).
The march began its movement in Plaza Venezuela and surrounded Los Caobos Park to the south, through the Paseo de la Resistencia Indígena and to the north through Quebrada Honda, to converge around Plaza Morelos and from there take Mexico Avenue and then University avenue.
PSUV leaders marched together with the crowd of militants and citizens in general, all in repudiation of the coercive measures that try to suffocate the Venezuelan economy.
Rodbexa Poleo pointed out that this Sunday the crowd is up in the fight “as well as our patriots, vindicating all the struggles that have preceded us,” he said.
«We call it the Tricolor March because this is the generation that has defended the national tricolor, the one that has defended the dream of (Liberator Simón) Bolívar and (Commander Hugo) Chávez, the generation that proudly raises its flag; the one who in the most difficult times of the homeland dressed in dignity and defended our country, “said the leader of the red awning.
He added that Venezuelans “today we march with love; with great awareness, claiming our history, our patriots, our liberators… but also our achievements; those that we have conquered in revolution, thanks to Commander Chávez and President Nicolás Maduro,” said Poleo.
The young leader stressed that the generation that marches this Sunday is the generation of dignity because it was the one that “had to live the barrel of oil at zero” and recalled that the young people who march faced the boycott and the blockade and achieved equitable distribution of the little fuel that was available with Operation Great Victory and the same one that faced an invasion attempt at the border, on the Tienditas bridge, in Táchira, on February 23, 2019.
He assured that this generation, despite the blockade, “never lost its smile, hope and awareness of defending its homeland.”
Young people from various corners of the country came to the capital to march in support of the Bolivarian Government, including several representatives of the Jpsuv de Apure.
The Jpsuv invited all the Venezuelan youth to join its membership to “forge themselves in the exercise of social, economic and political power” and “stay in constant formation”, emphasizing that their “greatest fruit will be the consolidation of the future for the new generations”.
